In the dead of night, beneath a moon's pale glow
I dig with trembling hands where memories grow.
Everyday
for 3 weeks
our relationship was called toxic
we were called obsessed with each other
we had our problems
we had our flaws
but we were working on them
i put up with it
Right now I am staring down
Barreling down
Hurtling towards
The same story and the same mistakes I have made for the past four years
I know how it ends but I don't know
The sky is bleak and the claws of regret are biting my ankles,
I walked toward the bland, black building, anxiety raking it’s claws down my back.
Dear Him,
Your eyes shine so bright,
Just as the stars in the sky.
I remember the night,
You had said good bye.
The sparkling sun gleamed down,
As I replay the memories;
Hey Fear,
What’re you still doin’ here?
I told you to go
Cause you always bring me down
So
low –
A simple question’s all it takes
To make my hands shake
Like my life’s at stake
