You say you’ll change
And I see you trying
It breaks my heart
To feel you rise
Coursing with love
As I crawl on the floor
When I hold you
Tears threaten to geyser
Eyes search for the door
Sighing through your hair
‘It’s too late to save this’
The die is cast
I love you
But I can’t be with you
Anymore
A broken tooth
In an empty can
Soul rattling raw
A marble
On a roulette wheel
About to lose it all
And it’s absurd!
My closest friends are
The saddest songs
You’ve ever heard
We let the pain flood in
And slowly learn to swim
I love you
But I can’t be with you
O, how did we ever mix
This shade of blue…
