"I have done plenty of fullfilling things, but what felt best was sharing moments with people who seemed to care.
A head
Against
A shoulder,
A hand
Resting against
Another,
You forget what it feels like and maybe I don't touch other people anymore because I know
I know
I know
How much it hurts when they walk away
Leave you to hold yourself together
While they go and hold someone else."
You wish you knew
What's on my mind
The way I gaze
The way I lose myself
In horizons that only make sense
In my head.
You can try
But you can't see
The words that I need
To feel free
We are all very lonely poets
Perhaps we should
Date each other.
If I fall
I doubt anyone would care

And if they did,
They'd probably be
Relieved

Not concerned

More of a
"Finally,
She's gone"
Sort of thing

Not a
"Oh no,
She's slipping"
Sort of thing

But if for some odd reason
You see me falling
And want to help

Just walk away
Just let me fall

You can't catch me
I'm too heavy
From the weight of
Lies and regrets

We would both fall then
And it would be my fault

So if you see me falling
Follow your instinct,
*And just walk away
I want what other people have
His and Hers keychains and romantic pennies,
Hand written letters on the pillow next to mine.
I want a goodbye kiss and goodnight hug.
I want it all
Why did we drop bombs on each other
Thinking it could bring peace?
