We were the strongest thing that could ever break
But now I look back and can’t remember the look on your face
And any hope to stay the same mattered as much as my promises to you or you to my broken promises
I always smiled when I saw your back, the lightest shade of skin
You always smiled when you saw my back, I was out as soon as in
I always smiled when I saw your back, the lightest shade of skin
I know why you smiled when you saw my back, I backed out as you leant in
Our love didn’t shift it died, and that feeling at that time doesn’t reside behind anyone or anything
And I tried to clutch at an ephemeral love, and tore it into the pieces of us
I am not who I was, nor am I who I will be
I cannot find proof, there is a me within me
And the you within me was just composite memory
And the me within you was just depravity
Love I feel is real but not really
Attached, to this
I am a body I have clothed and called me
Everything that I am will always be
Nothing fades except my transient feelings
They fall away
…
If you want closure, I’ll close your part,
But to me closure means keep me close to your heart
Cause I am so afraid of losing everything,
What am I now defines what I can be
All we know is (nothing) x3
Cause perspectives always change
I cant clutch to these marks, they’ll just start to form scars
I’m learning to decathect but letting go means losing half of
Of you, of me.
They say it’s better to have loved and lost
But I was scared of losing who I thought I was
If what makes me can never truly be lost
Then I’ll gladly lose love to leave a mark
Just because you’re flawed doesn’t mean you're not perfect
Just because It didn’t last doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth it
