I settled for love that only left me scarred
Only told me I'm gorgeous, when he's semi-hard
And I cried in the bathroom while he played guitar
Now I lay in the bedroom and I travel far
He called me a flower and still broke my heart
He picked on my petals and tore me apart
Now I'm out in the garden 'cause love didn't last
Last in real life, so I spend my time
Reading about it, turning the pages, and pages
Allowing myself to fade in the story about him
Kiss me in chapters, love me in writing
I'll be your coat in the thunder and lightning
We'll have a house and the house is a home
And the home has a fence and I won't be alone
Leave a kiss on my forehead and I won't have to worry
'Cause our hearts never break if we're living in a story
And I'll make you breakfast and some for the kids
And they'll play piano and take vitamins
And they'll believe in love 'cause they look up to us
And you would just adore me, living in a story
I'll be the author, the insomniac
Sell creative and maybe, I get paperback
And I'll bookmark the pages to freeze where I'm at
Because time doesn't freeze, I'll beg and I'll plead, just to
Wait here a second, the snow falls upon
Your eyelashes, it's heaven, reality's hell
We'll be somewhere in Devon and we'll bake
A pumpkin pie, spend all of my time
Reading about it, turning the pages, and pages
Allowing myself to fade in the story about him
Kiss me in chapters, love me in writing
I'll be your coat in the thunder and lightning
We'll have a house and the house is a home
And the home has a fence and I won't be alone
Leave a kiss on my forehead and I won't have to worry
'Cause our hearts never break if we're living in a story
And I'll make you breakfast and some for the kids
And they'll play piano and take vitamins
And they'll believe in love 'cause they look up to us
And you would just adore me, living in a story, there'll be
No pain and no crying, no sitting in silence
No wishing for change, no change in my diet
No guilt on your conscience, no blood on your hands
No salt in our seas, no stones in our sand, there's
No hatred or violence, no little white lyin'
No waiting for pain, no love unrequited
No thorns in my roses, no sorrow unplanned
'Til then I'm content with my book in my hand
"i will be okay i just have to get through today" i recite this in the mirror every day while i paint a smile on my face put my mask into place and resist the urge to wail again you are no longer here to carry me through this hell and i no longer have the will to crawl out myself you were my wings and i soared through the highest skies now loss is an unbearable weight and i drown in the darkest waters it's funny how fast things can change how you can go from flying to drowning from living to barely surviving from joy to war from dancing to bleeding out on the floor how fast a life can be taken for no clear reason but it's okay i am okay i just have to get through today ~ nyx
If you take time to look around you'll see the stories in the sand and hear the music of the waves.
