This Time Around
I find it easy to heal you Seeing that I understand the root of things The root of your things You brush everything and under the rug Not knowing you always leave a trail I always find where you went wrong I’m always there to help clean it up This time around you found a […]

So Soon
You were too surface level Unable to reach my mind at it’s lowest Your love was premature I don’t know why I craved it so much It still hurts to let you go so soon But it’ll feel better knowing I didn’t lose much

It Was Always You
I realized you were the one when you stayed longer You listened to my worries, even when repeated I really wanted you there and you wanted to be there You leaned into my trauma, not taking it on as your own But to be my support blanket You wrapped your warm arms around me Night […]
