June 14th, 2023 Am I grasping at straws I've placed 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,
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
Waste my time Or break my heart You don’t get both
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
With words left unspoken These promises broken Are washed away by These emotions awoken Forgive the sinner
The only fitting punishment The Gods could conspire To make us pay for our transgressions against the… You stole the stars from their sky
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
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
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
As the waves crash along the shore Which seems so far away, I ask myself; Why do I swim? Pushed from a ship
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
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 mourn not for what we had, I mourn for a future lost. A foundation laid of promises, Promises that now seem so easily b… I cry not for this loneliness,
