The only fitting punishment The Gods could conspire To make us pay for our transgressions against the… You stole the stars from their sky
It’s not the familiarity It’s not the loneliness It’s not the memories It’s not the safety It’s not the comfortability
I wish that these words No longer reflect my pain But my devotion
My hands grow weaker This hold I will prolong My legs shake and quiver But still I’ll stand strong My mind is chaos
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 self deprecation Are humbling jokes As to starve my ego Not a reflection of self hatred My sense of self
Adrift in the abyss Dappled with distant lights Imagination connects the dots To make sense of this predicament I was anchored on the satellite
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…
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
To Love is to abandon All rational and logic To act out of character And find depth within yourself To love is to put your wants
As I step forward I look back for one last time I wish you all the best
With words left unspoken These promises broken Are washed away by These emotions awoken Forgive the sinner
I cut this final cord. So why do I still feel bound? Oh, another cord.
Rain & sun Flowers bloom Spring has sprung Fading the gloom In summers heat
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…
