as much as you give
to other people
still
it won't be enough

you're not here
to please them

you're here
to please yourself

they don't own you
you own yourself

put faith in yourself

I was drowning
and you were the raindrops

but somehow
you were also the air
that I needed to breath

how it is
I’ll never understand

the conflict between
my head and my heart
is confusing
I tell myself
I've been falling in love
in the worst way

but my heart
feels the beauty
of loving
and be loved

I've already been in a war
with myself
I hate you,
and I still love you just the same.

those raindrops
washed away memories
on the road
that's why
petrichor
smells good
because
the fact that
you're gone
feels good

you are changing
i am changing
we are changing
and it's none of our fault,
is it?

we could've just run away
but both of us don’t
want to give up

both of us
still hold on
to something
i could never
understand
i still believe in us.

sharp edges
and pointed parts
might shatter me

a single sentence
could hurt me for days
a single name
could tear me for a couple nights


— words are knives
i’m a glass
threat me to the edge
and i’ll crash

I go out every night hoping the moonlight guide me to you
but it’s too dark outside
for a dark soul
whose light was stolen

I tried to walk alone
but it’s too heavy
for an empty soul
whose blood was rinsed

no darling
you didn’t break me
you ****** the oxygen out of me
until like I didn’t even exist

Show me you scars.
Show me you bruises.
I need to see all the times that I failed to be there for you.

Don't love me if you don't
expect to be let down and for
the love of god, don't trust
me with your heart.

If love is a battlefield,
Doesn't that make life war?
And what's war without casualties?
