If There Is One Thing That Is The Mark Of Being Human,

You’ve been gone for some time

Can’t remember your face

I hear your voice on the wind and brace

For the tears that never come

You leaving has left me quite numb

And I listen to sad songs, cart through conversations

Trying to find even a semblance of emotions

But nothing can wake me up now

You’ve put me to sleep like a child

We haven’t known each other long

But I can’t help but think

Soulmates is what we must have been

We hadn’t talked enough to know the darkest parts of us

But I through if we would have seen it

It wouldn’t’ve crushed our dreaming

Now older sitting here alone

Waiting on you like a ghost

One you’ve turned to way to young

I’m climbing places, growing spines

More than one and I don’t know why

But I assume you’d have been proud

And had you stayed you’d met some people

Ones’ who care for me like you do

Or in my dreams at least you did

And I can feel it growing larger

I can feel myself expanding

Reaching tree-tops, reaching stars

Reaching arms out to grasp yours

Mom, please

I want to stop holding back

I want to stop biting my lip

Unleash me like the beast this house has created

I don’t want to tell myself no, just not to escalate it, just not to add more to your plate

I want to strike

Mom, please

His words are killing you

And it’s not that I’m sorry

But god am I so

I don’t love you, sorry

I never learned how

You weren’t the problem

It was my heart

Stone cold and frozen

It’s falling apart

And no one’s the villain

We are just people

Surely we both were

Hurt in spectacles

We’ve set up together

Hoping for love

I don’t love you, sorry

Nothing’s ever worked

We were a problem

Without a solution

A question, no answer

We couldn’t be fruitful

You gave me your heart

A key to a lock

I don’t love you, sorry

My heart has no door
