It's taken months for me to realize
That I can no longer dream if you
And still feel like a sane person
Or even remain remotely whole

Time has been harsh not helpful
With moving on from your eyes
And sweet smile even though
It gets me every god ****** time

Love was something I feared
It was something I needed from you
However it has become very clear
That we are long in the past

Everyday I attempt to say goodbye
While everyday I am forced to see you
It's a constant cycle of pain, regret, and
Longing for something so unattainable

But I will continue to say goodbye
I will let go of this anchor one day
Because I know I am far better off
Without you anyway

I set myself on fire
In hopes of keeping you warm
The only thing I desired
To be part of your beautiful storm
But eventually I burnt out
the light had long faded away
A smirk planted on your mouth
I guess you never intended to stay
Instead kicked my ashes to the wind
Goodbye old friend

There are a million different languages
written across his face
Entire constellations have been placed
into the palms of his hands
His very existence is the greatest lie
that has ever been told
He is perfection at it's worst and sadly
I don't believe in him
anymore

it would be entirely selfish of me
and too much to ask of you
to keep our attempt at love
a secret from the world

it would be a terrible shame
if we decided to part ways
i wouldn't survive
no i couldn't

it would be all on me if i asked
for you to chose us not her
and you missed out while
also losing our friendship

it is such a challenge to last
i don't know how to love
but i pray for a miracle
like maybe we would

I am not entirely sure
Whether life falls along a set path of reason
I am not entirely sure
If the stars are just a metaphor of beauty in death
But I am entirely certain
that I met you out of no coincidence
and I have never seen someone so full of galaxies before I met you
Maybe that’s why the milky way is calling you home

I'm a little drunk and it's as if my head is being pounded against a brick wall
But I know the sound if your voice is my favorite song and I can't stop singing the melody

I'm a little depressed and yet I can't stop running around this boring town
But I know I love the way your body strides and I'd like to dance next to you

I'm a little tired and I wish I was asleep, safely cocooned under your dark grey sheets
But I know that the past can never be relived, so I will have to sing myself to sleep tonight.
I need you but you don't have time for feelings like that

— The End —
