My hands grow weaker This hold I will prolong My legs shake and quiver But still I’ll stand strong My mind is chaos
When we met You found me At my worst When we loved Time stood still
You Your Your voice Echoes ghostly In the halls of my memories
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…
My vision clouds with these tears Tears made from our memories Maybe one day the they will stop Or I won’t feel them anymore
As the waves crash along the shore Which seems so far away, I ask myself; Why do I swim? Pushed from a ship
Are you eating enough? Are you staying hydrated? Are you loving yourself? Or is your breath left bated? Are you sleeping enough?
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
My self deprecation Are humbling jokes As to starve my ego Not a reflection of self hatred My sense of self
Like a tower of crystal glasses My hope stacks higher Waiting to come crashing down And lacerate my heart below A thousand tiny shards
I drank you in Like a fish Gasping for water Little did I know You were a shark
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
Do not mistake my silence, For absence. I will always be there for you. Always. But I must be here for myself,
It’s easy to tell someone, “Just move on”, When you weren’t the one In their shoes. It’s easy to tell someone,
Rain & sun Flowers bloom Spring has sprung Fading the gloom In summers heat
