I see you walking toward me
As I'm walking toward you
You lift your head a little higher
When you notice me
10 feet
I wriggle in my skin
5 feet
As you dip your head in my direction
2 feet
And ask how I'm doing
I stutter step to the beat of my heart
And tell you I'm good
We are passed one another now
And I can't help but look back
At the first, but could be only, time
I've ever seen you
I wonder if I'll meet you again one day
And I realize how hot my cheeks are

Humans are such dangerous but
Fragile creatures
There's an easier way of doing everything
But we always choose the hard way
I guess I'm trying to say
I chose you
You were my hard way
I didn't make it out alive
You took all I could give
I know you won't give any back
Bad or good choice
I don't know
I won't know until I'm on my death bed
Breathing my final words
You will never know
Poor destructive humans

You break me like a toothpick
And hide all your insecurities away
But I can see them
When your eyes water
And teeth chatter from the cold
You control everything
Including me
But what you don't know
Is I wish you could just see me
As a person
And stop compartmentalizing

I was willing to do anything for you
I wanted to love you more than
The moon loves the sun
I would've broke my heart a thousand times just to see you smile
I could've held your hand forever
I was meant for you
But you
Weren't meant for me
You wouldn't let yourself
Fall again
While I was throwing myself off cliffs for you

I need something to replace this
Empty feeling inside
I tried to pull you in
To keep you right here beside me
Where you could find my weakness
And I could find yours
You didn't care to
And your weakness was too easy
So now here I sit
Completely empty
And close to falling off the
Edge
Of this torment we call life

Open up my head and pour out the contents
Rearrange me
Fix me
Drag out the madness  
With a clear shot
I hope you take it
I'm tired of the madness

You have no idea
What I'm going through
To get you off my mind
And out of all my thoughts
