There's sand in my feet
Wind in my hair
My hands can't touch the ground
You're not around

My head under water
I'm still breathing fine
I'm slowly drifting away
Escaping it all

I'm picking it up
Start again
Second chances
Forget the pain
For it's time
Leave the past behind
Sarah Oh Oct 2015
The air feels heavy
My lungs can't take the weight
My sight is getting blurry
It's getting late

I'm lost and a wandering soul
With nowhere else to go
Am I getting old?
Or just waiting for uncertainty to unfold?

Her emotions run dry
She's out of tears to cry
The sky looks grey
As if it's got something to say

She longs for his love
Consumed by desire and lust
Even when ashes turn to dust
He's the only thing she thinks of
Sarah Oh Oct 2015
She's looking for a place to start
Everything feels so different now
Since the day he's broken her heart
For her heart ached in her eyes, she could not disavow

Don't promise me forever
I just want us to live in the moment
And love each other one day at a time
Because it's now or never

I don't say a lot of things
Not because I love you less
Who knows what the future brings
You're my precious, nonetheless
Sarah Oh Oct 2015
I know that we have not been the same lately
I know that there are times when I look at you
I feel like I barely know this person anymore
What hurts me is that you probably feel the same too
And there's no other way than me struggling to keep us alive
While your heart's somewhere else
Sarah Oh Oct 2015
You're my sweetest downfall
A beautiful mistake
Breaks my bones
Still, I'm standing tall
