Who we are

Fri, 06/01/2018 - 13:29 -- Kate.T

All I wanted,

Was to not remember you

All I needed

Was a resting stop

But I cannot  forget the picture perfect faces

And I can’t change what’s happened to  the broken daze

please don’t make this harder on me

 

Taking it all away

I guess I forgot to breathe

Somehow

The currents

Catch me off guard

 

I don’t know what to say

I never wanted to leave

But I guess you did

I guess

You did

Memories are just sweet rememberings

And your face

Is another picture perfect

portrait

Of the mess we had

Of it all going

Bad

 

So leave

Let me breathe

I’ve forgotten everything

I walked the road

Back home

To pick up the pieces

You made me leave

 

In a ruinous city

At times i can still feel your hands

Holding me back

From falling

But it was always too late
