I feel my insides congest,
But a hallow cavity in my chest,
And I try to contest,
But I failed to respond,
Love.
Promises weren't kept
And darkness crept,
As we wept,
And we try to grasp the feeling of being swept,
Love.
It was never ours for the taking,
It wasn't a future we were making,
And it crumbled as we were raking,
The pieces that we were breaking,
Love.
We let the numbness take over,
As we waste in the corner,
Of our minds while we hoarder,
The memories that border,
The outline of our shoulders,
But we'll drift,
Love.
We'll learn to forget,
And we might feel regret,
But the pain will subside,
And our memories won't collide,
We won't be upset,
Because we haven't lived yet,
And we'll reach for hope,
Love,
My heart and I.
