Sometimes
When I walk on empty streets
I can feel your footsteps
Wavering, hesitant
Perhaps wondering
Where I was
As I look for you too
In the past, in the invisible
In your absence.

I can't help but
Be thankful it didn't work out
Absence doesn't always make the heart grow fonder
Sometimes it makes it forget
And what doesn't **** you doesn't always make you stronger
Sometimes it tears you apart with regret

and now,
we're just strangers,
who love each other,
a little too much
oh how i wish i could go back to the past

Caught up in the fairytale
Captivated by the dream
I didn’t notice the warning signs
Or hear my subconscious scream

You manipulated & coerced me
Into falling in love with you
I honestly believed we were soulmates
Even when you couldn’t be true

One other woman is all it should’ve taken
For me to walk out your door
Several affairs over two years
And I finally said “no more”

A typical narcissist you are dating again
Finding solace in new supply & old
I know deep inside you’re as miserable as hell
And your heart is heavy and cold

I’ve made it to day 55 of silence
I haven’t attempted to pick up the phone
Of course I miss “us” whatever we were
But I know I’m better off alone.

You poisoned both my body and mind
You have actually broken my heart
Grieving for a person who is still alive
Is definitely the hardest part.

your eyes
            are
          so explosively
   captivating
                    i feel like i
   float in space
                 every time
      your blue
                    and
                          my green
               collide,
    creating a new earth.
i wish you felt the same
I love you
At least I think I still do
I know I did
At least I thought I once knew

We echoed into the empty
When you threw us away
Im trapped in the silence between your sentences
They keep me there all day

Each night i weep
While youre fast asleep
My cries go unheard
I'm a whisper, a word

Lonely
Being with the wrong person can be the loneliest thing in the world
Letting go can be the hardest thing in the world
Learning to love yourself is the most important thing in the world
