I’m done turning a blind eye on the things you do. I’m giving up I never thought I’d say these words to you I’m giving up I’m giving up on you No longer will I let you question a single part of my life. No longer will I put myself through hell for you. When I came face to face with death I watched as you walked away Nothing lasts. Time won’t heal. Everyone is waiting for me to fail. To fall apart. To lose it all. Nothing lasts forever. Time heals nothing. Nothing lasts forever. Time won’t heal me.

I’m sorry to be a bother But how have you been And while you're with him do you still think of me? It feels like years since you said we shouldn't speak Has it been days or weeks? I still have these dreams where I lose all my teeth I can't remember the last time we spoke All I can remember is being choked Up on all the words I wish I could say to you Cause you're moving on and I wish I could too My voice shakes as I try to hold it back Cause I haven't broke like this in ages It’s just me against myself, and no one else. The memories linger, and they’re all that’s left. Ill pick these petals one by one. She loves me. She loves me not. Ill read your letters over and over. Forget me. Forget me not. Forget me.

Another day and a passing phase. I wake up and I change my face. I stare in the mirror and what I see is never the same. I can’t recognize myself most days so how will I notice you leave as well? How did I let myself sink this far down? My mind is a living hell. Trapped in my thoughts with no escape. Never enough and always a day late. How can I lie to myself And say that I’m worth so much more? When I stare in the mirror what I see is never the same. When I stand still. My reflection moves. A doppelganger in my place. As im stuck behind this glass. Left to suffer for my mistakes. Make this day my last. Shatter the glass and set me free. Take my life and do as you please. A Downward spiral I'll watch from above. I gave but I never received your love. How did I not see this coming? How did I let you leave? You chose to forgive and forget. You Loved and now you regret. You live. You learn. You’ll die or you'll burnout.

Feel 03:13
My emotions drain, as the words drip from ink to paper Longing for a feeling of comfort that no longer reciprocates I never deserved you, but I don’t deserve to feel the pain I’m going through Two hearts beat in sync, only now from a distance You held me together, now my stitches and strings are pulling tight. Every time I see you it kills me inside. For better or worse, you still make me feel. I’ll keep picking at the scab so it will never heal. Open up and let it bleed. I’m holding on to whats left behind. Clinging to anything. I’m holding on to what’s left behind. Clinging to anything I can reach. Another wasted love. Another wasted life. Ruined By My Own Hands. I’ll keep picking at the scab. So it will never heal. Open up. And let it bleed. As the ink dries. I’ll leave behind my Final words As a permanent reminder that I can no longer Bear the weight. Don’t stop until I bleed.

Time is many things, it has many faces Flies by on many wings, running in different races It Freezes and Falls Speeds up when it's needed to pause. Ticks by when no time is left, tocks on when everyone is deaf If trust is just a thing we most often misplace. Then time is simply a thing we most often waste. We have all of it in the world, but it's one thing we'll never find. It can do many things but it’s never healed a wound of mine. Your name feels familiar on my tongue A false sense of security Your name feels familiar in my lungs A Hope for eternal serenity Now I know, Now that I’m older I understand Why you put your head in that noose. The days pass without you, but they’re never the same. Revisiting old memories, reopening the wound from its source Apathy has taken its course. I reach for the frayed knots A firm grasp and a steady footing Without a shred of hope I cling To the overbearing thoughts That I’ll soon be forgotten With these final words ill sing This world was never meant for me. If trust is just a thing we most often misplace. Then time is simply a thing we most often waste. But It’s never healed a wound of mine.
