The World ended, not with a bang, but with a sniffle. a tear. a cracked voice. First came the Horseman of Silenc…
Do not mistake my silence, For absence. I will always be there for you. Always. But I must be here for myself,
This bed is too big I have too much space These blankets are too much Engulfing me, but I still shiver I have too much food
My self deprecation Are humbling jokes As to starve my ego Not a reflection of self hatred My sense of self
I cut this final cord. So why do I still feel bound? Oh, another cord.
I wish that these words No longer reflect my pain But my devotion
I want to walk away I want this hope to stay I’m twisted and torn My promise, I’m sworn To see you again someday
Rest your head on my shoulder When you’re feeling tired Let me sing of your praises When you need to be inspired Bend my ear to your lips
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
My hands grow weaker This hold I will prolong My legs shake and quiver But still I’ll stand strong My mind is chaos
Help me to understand it Help open up my eyes I’m trying to move past it But I can’t seem to see why When we’re together
The longer I wait for you The more I prolong this pain The longer you wait to speak The more distant I become The more I heal
When we met You found me At my worst When we loved Time stood still
Like a tower of crystal glasses My hope stacks higher Waiting to come crashing down And lacerate my heart below A thousand tiny shards
The only fitting punishment The Gods could conspire To make us pay for our transgressions against the… You stole the stars from their sky
