Description

Behind my flooded eyes-
Reality secretly drowns
At the deep end of my heart's tide-
I break down without a sound

Smiles are simple masks-
Strength is an excuse
Weakness is a perfect act-
Scars are permanent proof

I portray a solid statue-
But my insides are ruined
I would only end up worrying you-
If you witnessed my tears blooming
-
I couldn't reach for your hands
Your love was always a depleting solution

There is no future with you while I live in the past
Your forgiveness never stood a chance against my self-discrimination

Old wounds consumed / Memories of you
Dreams became immune / Fears remained true


I had to let go of your essence
To truly become lost

I deconstructed every one of my reasons
Because the last nightmare couldn't be fought
-
In front of my divided lies-
Illusions slept silently
Above my soul's strife-
I wept for you endlessly

My cries recited multiple stories-
Of when moments were perfect
My pleas failed to rewrite tragedies-
The causes crumbled after the effects

I know what you would say-
That everything will be alright
But your comfort breaks away-
While I can't bring myself to live on with my life
