How do you know when it's over?
I've never been on this side before
I've never fallen out of love
I've never been the first to give up

The Beginning of the End

And maybe it does happen
Just
Like
That

You wake up and you're not in love anymore

I'll Always Love You

As they sat silently next to one another
She delicately slipped her hand into her old lover's

She smiled faintly and let out a small laugh the sounded more like a sigh
*"Funny isn't it? After all this time, you're still the most familiar thing I'll ever know."

To Feel So Deeply or Not at All

I envy simple minded people
Ones whose hearts are not drowning in the sorrows of the world

I wonder what it's like to so easily feel joy
How easy it must be to breathe without the whole earth's pain wallowing in their hearts

It's Just a Phase

I reread all the letters you wrote to me
And I tell myself that you still feel that way
As I pray that this newfound loneliness will subside
Because I used to be my happiest at your side

Acquired Taste

You're good with people
Polite and considerate
You filter to save the awkwardness that follows honesty
You're very likable and easy to be around

I'm blunt and too straight forward
I offend a lot of people and quite often
My opinions are matter of fact and I act like I know everything when I don't mean to

It's quite the miracle that you love me
Because most people don't

Nevermind Then?

And it made sad
You didn't want to see the words
That I so delicately crafted
To express the beauty that occurs
When I am entwined with you
