#comingback
Come back to the moment. Which one? Yesterday, the day before— the sun was always brighter, remember? Come back to the moment. When? Years ago, I don’t even know. The grass is greener in memory than in the soil. Come back to the moment when my mind saw a world pristine and unraveled, ready to be walked. Please, come back, little boy I once was. Come back to the summer scent on your skin, and the raspberry taste on your lips. Yes—then. Come back, but don’t stay. [Another recurrence of The Unwritten—spilled as art. Raw expressions from an overwhelmed mind, and a trickster heart.]

But Don't Stay

Redemption...
How cold was the night when Belle learned to love a horrid beast? How bright was the evening when Wendy chose to never leave? How silent was the dark when Aurora was sound asleep? How selfish was the midnight when Cinderella’s shoe fell off her feet? Now, those are magics and princesses made up of fiction and fantasies; We are blood and flesh made up of atoms and reality Who are forced to believe someday we'll be as lucky To have our own kind of sweet tell-a-tale stories. But how cold was the night when you waited for someone to come back? How bright was the evening when you wished upon a shooting star on the sky? How silent was the dark with your sobs and tears that were left to cry? How selfish was midnight when you realize no one's returning as you look at the clock? It all happens after AM when the night was cold while the evening was bright the dark was silent and the midnight was selfish. — 𝙘𝙗.𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙙

It's coming back
today looks like knowing. it looks like coming to and realizing that making me feel hard to love has more to do with your heart than mine. realizing you brought out the lesser parts of me. the unease, the pain, the doubt, all this waiting and in the end you are only sadness. and i’ve fought my whole life for happy. i’ve fought my whole life for the opposite of you. there are no regrets here, because this brought me closer to myself. closer to trusting me. all this time i was waiting for the silence, to hear the right voice in my head. ...it took so long because i thought I was waiting for you.

Deathly hollow eyes staring black Pupils dilated in the abyss Autopilot is all that’s left Thoughts flooded of final bliss Overdosed on emotions Versatile and utterly unnecessary My heart is empty but not broken This feeling is so familiarly scary This is what I felt in the absence of you The disappearance of first love My walls surrounded me, deathly blue And all was drained from above Panic and fear is all that’s missing Manic is the replacement now My heart wont stop cooing and singing For the final leap, the last bow Living in the moment is fright Terrifying, my soul shivers and breaks To even imagine going through the night Without the hope of climbing free This feeling is what was left, Its sneaked back into my heart Unwanted its slowly tearing me apart And I hope I survive the climb back The climb back is me The absence of you, The realization is what brings Back me from the absence of me From being cast to the dark Torn apart, and nonexistent From all you left I spark The climb is what I live through

Absence of You
how dare you come back? how can you do what you do to me 'Cause when it's you I can't say no, and it ******* really hurts that I always let you in even if you lways leaves me hanging hoping that everytime you touch me, the possibility of having you entirely why can't I ignore you the way you ignore me I ****** up so bad.. And this is getting old how can you come back and go and leave me empty and sober using me for that long... and I let you use me for that long, haven't you felt a little just a little emotion but I guess not, You said I've given you what you needed but you never really needed me I end up crying inside for you but I can't let you see how much it hurts me pretending that I'm enjoying playing this ******* game.. Sometimes when I'm in your arms I wonder If I'l ever have the chance to be the one Or maybe not... I admit, and can't lie I still love you after all the harsh cold kisses I can feel you have nothing fo me but why you keep coming back?.. Yes I can give you what you need but I guess I'll never be the one you really needed. I'd rather you tell me the worst but why still keep me like this when I thought you already forgot about me and me trying hard you'll come back again and ask for me ask for more you got me on your grip I'm doomed for loving you, and I guess will always will..

How Dare You Come Back?
You're not even at my door and still I've made a bed for you

Bed
I don’t think you like being lost I don’t mind so much Truthfully, I usually don’t notice until I’m back And I realized I glazed through the Minutes, hours, days You seem to notice every second Cringing at the emptiness I hurt for you I hurt with you Sometimes we have to leave Get lost In order to find What we’re looking for The answer The part of ourselves It’s easy for me To take a step back and wander off Deep into my own mind Into other places, other worlds I can walk right out of reality without thinking twice And I don’t miss it I wish I knew how to help you Make it less painful Make you less sad Something I could do Or say To make you see That we need to be lost To be found
