My self deprecation Are humbling jokes As to starve my ego Not a reflection of self hatred My sense of self
Long-lost souls unite, Tears of joy in heartfelt hugs, Reunion’s embrace.
Do not mistake my silence, For absence. I will always be there for you. Always. But I must be here for myself,
Because you brighten my day Even when the sun’s shining When I’m feeling down & fret You’re my silver lining Your warmth is like a buffet
What I mistook for your warmth I now realize was actually a freez… You found me, built me up Then destroyed me You claim to care about me
I wish that these words No longer reflect my pain But my devotion
Were your reasons true? Were they for me or for you? Was there really nothing we could… I wonder. Why was it easier to hide?

As the waves crash along the shore Which seems so far away, I ask myself; Why do I swim? Pushed from a ship
You were the light of my life So tell me why You decided to burn it to cinders And leave me in darkness
It would be easier If I could hate you If you had so utterly decimated me That I couldn’t stand again It would be easier
There once was a man from Frederi… Who lost sight of his worth and me… But along she came, Then left just the same, And now his heart feels asymmetric…
In the depths of heartbreak’s icy… Where tears flow freely, leaving t… A soul finds solace in longing’s b… Aching for a love it hopes to rega… The echoes of laughter, once share…
