It's the moment alone
When the tears come down
That we have to make a choice
Do we convince ourselves that we have no one
Or do we fall apart and trust there will be someone there to catch the pieces?
How funny it was
That as our lips sat inches apart
Begging to be kissed
We talked about our lovers
Without hearing each other's words
Or even knowing what we were saying ourselves

How funny it was
To be lost in your eyes
While telling you why I shouldn't be
He said to me,

"The reason you find yourself alone so much is because you are truth, where people want to turn a blind eye.
You're a constant reminder of the things that they're terrified to say and so instead of loving you,
They run away and say nothing at all."
Today, I cried
And even in all this misery
It felt good to still know I was alive
It's not that I want to be alone
I just don't know how to not be this way
I just keep reminding myself that someday it'll get better

It has to get better

One day I'll be better
If we never talk about it
Then I won't have to realize my greatest fear that

*You don't love me anymore
