I fall over your every word.
Tangled in each constant  and vowel.
I approach your conversation with unexplained anxiety, unable to articulate what i mean to say.

You leave me searching for answer's to questions you never answered.
Boy, i am one more fool fool lured in by love's cacophonous death siren.
Why do i settle on a romance that hasn't a chance, im better than this, im no idiot, a skeptic i am, relying on empirical evidence.

but still, you have me turning to faith.
MAN!
I
Think
I
Love
You.

Just because I seem strong doesn’t mean I can be left all by myself.
Just because I wasn’t crying doesn’t mean I didn’t care.
Just because I wasn’t writing you doesn’t mean I didn’t want to talk
Just because I left doesn’t mean I didn’t want to stay

When I say it’s okey, it wasn’t, can you finally get it?
How could you take your soul away from me?
Leaving me with empty whole
That hurts every morning

Was it love if I’m so replaceable?
Just because I seem strong, doesn’t mean I will survive your lost.

I find myself reminiscing
a fading memory of time
in which I can do nothing more
but recall its evident prime
Memories of my Eleanor

This lady, my Eleanor
is no more than a fair maiden
but see in her deepest core
a soulful art not drawn by pen
filling up my every sense

We were misfits and eccentric
Our astute minds knew well
that our love does not roughly dwell
similar to how great writers tell
but in love, indeed, we fell

Holding her hand was too thrilling
too rare, too foreign, too precious
A moment that was time-warping
An instant I wished not to flee
as it fills in a piece of me

My love for her was all-consuming
and her existence was enthralling
What others couldn't, she made me feel
What's said in books all seemed surreal
until she came and made it real

But now she's gone
and time has run
She's still the lady I adore
in endless cycle of forevermore
My radiant sun, my Eleanor

Dear Soulmate,

Today is Valentines day. Our first one apart. I guess forever didn’t last so long... Normally I would write you personally, but you see my love, Valentines day is for lovers, not the memory of them or even love, that is still in the cage of my heart. On this special day you have someone new to celebrate with – I bet she is a very lovely girl.
Our time has finished and I accepted it. But I have to be honest too. That’s why I write this letter. The letter I will never send you, because I want you to be happy, even if it’s with her, not me.
Anyway, on Valentines day and yesterday, maybe tomorrow, maybe in a year – I want to tell you – I love you. As simple as it. You were my first love, the one you never forget.
I hope one day we will finally be on the same stage of our relationship – as a couple or just as friends. Because before you loved me too much, while now I have to accept you in someone else arms.

We went through a lot
We had ups
And we had downs
WE FOUND LOVE

But what is it?
Is it pain?
Is it happiness?

I scream
I let myself hurt you

why?

there is no answer
and there is million answers

I can control myself
And I can keep all inside
For many many months
And then it’s bad
It’s so ******* rough for so long

But then I meet you
And everything is fine
You love me, I love you
We hold each others hands
We feed each others souls

But then you leave me again
And I guess I can’t handle it

So I let myself hurt you
Killing my soul
Giving away my body

Destroying what I care about the most
Removing the pain with bigger pain

I've never known it will be so hard
To live and laugh
Kicking you out of my yard

I've never known it will be so hard
Waking up and not cry
Breathe and go toward

I've never known it will be so hard
Ride a bike without crash
Loosing my lifeguard

I've never known it will be so hard
Not to think and fight
For my own trading card

She was the first one to love me
I'll never forget
Days of wonder
Nights of zest
Happy times
Smiles galore
I loved her so much
Her, I still adore
Now we are older
Over and gone from each other
Still, we go on
Remembering the measure
Of the great pleasure
To be in the other's arms

And so it is on the Saturday morn
I think of us when we were cozy and warm
The world at our feet
We had it all back then
Life was so sweet
She now lives in a happy home
It turned out fine for my dear one
I can say the same for me
As we both roam through life
Giving thanks for each day
And the love we still share
Ne'er to drift away

I'm just getting started my love
They said I'd forget you soon
Not to take it so seriously
But I can't live like that

I wanted to think of forever
I wasn't practicing how to love
I thought you deserved my best
I guess it's not good enough

I'm the one that got away
It's gonna come alive
You'll remember I knew
I knew how to love you
Because that's all I wanted to know

I don't want to make mistakes
I tried to figure you out
That's where I went wrong this time
Putting pieces together before they break

Now you want to say you're sorry
Somehow I'm more important than ever
Telling you it's ok so you can move on
And give a clean heart to someone new

I'm the one that got away
It's gonna haunt you
You'll wake up thinking of me
And how I was the right kind of fool
The right kind to fall in love with you

But I'll love again
Yes I'll love again
In spite of you
In spite of you
