Internal conflict has never been so prominent.
I thought you were the only walking contradiction I knew,
until someone told me that we were the same person.
People need to learn the difference between living in the moment vs. thinking in the moment.
And yes, I'm speaking to the author.
People need to take into consideration that sometimes having what you want
in the short run is going to stop your heart in the long.
And yes, I'm speaking to the author.
And on that Wednesday night, the moon was half full
but the people were only half there
I wasn't having fun
But I believed you when you said I would
Shadows loomed and stars began to move
I told god I was not myself
Because I'm not.
I am not who I am
demons giggled and chapped hands began to quiver.
Folks who always say they'll stay tend to be the ones
who always end up leaving.
Three am is dark and slightly colder when you're alone
The stars and their voices became less friendly
and so did I
and at 15% we shared a 15 minute call
you gave one too few apologies
and left a million questions buried beneath my head
God says we need to forgive
And so I did.
God says we need to love
and so I am.
But I don't know how long I can tolerate someone with brown eyes
Brown eyes that are dangerously similar to yours.
But nonetheless
I gave it to you still beating
Now lets see how long I can keep breathing.
