Teen angst stylee. I so need to be 12 again 😉
After the dust settlesWhen the way we think moves, changes
Running like water through a drain
One after the other, pieces of what we were
Flowing away like pieces of paper in the rain
Standing, watching, powerless to stop
Unaware of why it’s happening so fast
Grasping for the pieces of the life we once had
Hoping to find something that will last
Silently the gap grows wider, deeper
Suddenly I’ve lost you and I barely care
Until I look around and see the shadows
The place you once took, you’re not there
Grasping at the past trying to build a future
Crying with the pain of my present skin
All I have left is hope and forgiveness
But they’re not enough to bring you back in
I taught myself not to regret anything I do
But you I regret, the damage I’ve done
I should have paid more attention, watched myself
I should have been better, after all is said and done
I am flawed, an old wound won’t heal
Dealing with this made me lose focus somewhat
So I’m stuck in the rain, watching you flow through my fingers
I never wanted that. I never wanted that.
Life comes unfurled, a new day unfolds
And the realisation you hate me hits me again
And all I want to do is turn back the clock
But what’s done is done and only I remain
The power to choose my own direction
Was lost in your kiss, lost in your heart
If only I could turn back time and start anew
But it’s only me left now, we’re too far apart
So how do I move on, where do I go?
Will I ever know when my scars will break?
My heart is with you, I am an empty shell
I’m sorry, I made such terrible mistakes

Random Thought: You had to sneak into my room ‘just’ to read my diary “It was just to see, just to see” All the things you knew I’d written about you... Oh, so many e
