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
I pray you don’t find These words of pain from my heart I’m broken right now
If you told me To lay down my arms I would raise my shields Yet I surrender If you warned me
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
Are you eating enough? Are you staying hydrated? Are you loving yourself? Or is your breath left bated? Are you sleeping enough?
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
Do not assume these words of hurt Are directed at you I have bared to you my heart and s… Yet our words remained withheld Do not assume these words of pain
I drank you in Like a fish Gasping for water Little did I know You were a shark
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
Adrift in the abyss Dappled with distant lights Imagination connects the dots To make sense of this predicament I was anchored on the satellite
When we met You found me At my worst When we loved Time stood still
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
Like a tower of crystal glasses My hope stacks higher Waiting to come crashing down And lacerate my heart below A thousand tiny shards
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
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
