Timing

We were an inevitable looking for the right timing
An indefinite but not quite yet

Whirlwind

She's the kind of girl
Hurricanes are named after

Fork in the Road

I'm not sure how our story will end

But I'll always be your first
And no matter how hard you try
I will never be washed completely from your skin

No matter what happens to us
I find peace in knowing that
However many women might get the privilege of kissing you after me
You'll still have the faintest taste of me on your lips

Lonely

And when I find myself alone

I remind myself that I am dangerous
And fierce
And strong

That I am the accumulation of things that most people don't know how to love

And that is not at all my fault

Decisions

I cannot decide which is worse:

The emptiness that love leaves behind
Or the loneliness of never loving again

I Can't Let Go

You let me see the most wonderful parts of you
And even when that person ceased to exist
I couldn't let go
Because the hope that he might return chained itself around my heart

Isn't it Ironic?

I spent my entire life trying to escape
Only to find that my soul finds healing
In the very place I refused to call home
