another day
I wish my thoughts away
that my memory would fade
but it's not going anywhere.
Only brokenness and scarring
my soul feels so heavy, darling
My lungs are full of fluid
I am breathing without air
Like that moment when you told me
as I lay alone in bed
that there was someone else for you
before the line went dead
And was I the the one who hung up
or
were you the one instead?
Well I guess it doesn't matter
because now it's all just scattered
innocence in teardrops shed
But the moment I first saw you
I was captivated
swept away
we've been pulled and stretched and strained but
in your heart, my heart
kept safe
And it's less likely than ever
but you're anchoring me here
I will probably wait forever
for you,
bring my heart back safely,
feel it beating
though we're bleeding
grip your wrist
your blood runs cold with fear
kiss my throat
my pulse is racing, dear
we'll find healing
we'll find meaning
you are hoping
I am begging
don't let go
forever
near.
