I heard you that night,
when you whispered my name and waited for some type of response.
I was so lost in the illusion of ‘love’
that my heart wouldn’t let my voice whisper back.

We laid still that night,
when we should have opened our hearts.
This damn illusion of ‘love’ lasting forever
stopped any kind of..I love yous.. from leaving this broken heart.

This bottle took us to a time
when passion for each other filled our hearts
I remember the early hours of a morning long ago
when I found myself standing on your doorstep
wiping away tears and anxiously waiting
my heart was beating way too loudly for me to listen to any type of message it was sending.

It would take me 267 miles to reach you right now.
If I showed up tonight, wiping away more tears
would you greet me as you did before?
I hope not.
I hope you look at me like I’m crazy and tell me to turn right around.
According to others, it might be the smartest decision you’ll ever make.
We’ll just be another mystery of life we aren’t supposed to understand.

Your finger tips press against my skin
just hard enough for my mind to take this a different direction.
This horrible decision was worth making because of that response.
Timing can be so cruel
if I could have cut that moment out and pasted it years before
I’d be shedding more smiles than tears.

 This is about the time

I slam on the breaks

And put this heart in reverse.

But the rhythm is off anyway

So I’ll ignore it and set the cruise

what’s a few more empty miles

It’s like we held everything in

As if we made a list and were checking it off

Everything that had happened since we said goodbye

Their names weren’t brought up

Which made it that much better

 

We both know

Once one of us moves on

It will change everything

I hope I still look back and smile

But I doubt it

I hate rules

 

That goodbye has nothing on our past

That goodbye- is why I hate them.

To me, that was our hardest goodbye.

I hate you

For giving me hope that we could make my mothers fairytale lifestyle come true

I hate you

For betraying me for so many years.

I hate you

For saying ‘I love you’ too late.

I hate you

Because when I lost you, I also lost your/my family.

I loved you.

 

I hate you

For choosing her so many times.

I hate you

For making memories with me.

I hate you

For never going away.

I hate you

Because I was never enough

I loved you.

 

I hate

That you weren’t my first true love

I hate

That you weren’t my first sexually

I hate

that they took all of this away from us.

I love you. I love you. I love you.

The truth is…
If you said goodbye, it would break me

The truth is…
I feel so much like him right now, that it makes me sick
I guess now I understand a feeling I never thought I would 

The truth is…
I’m too far in to get out now.
I don’t know how you did it to her
I hope you’ll be my only regret when I die. 

The truth is…
We’ll never know what could have been
We’ll always look back and wonder
I hate playing you hollow
but at the same time.. I love it.

Simple kisses and hand holding

Is all it took

I hate goodbyes

But I would re-live that one any day.

If I came back home

I wouldn’t want to start all over

Let’s just pick up where we left off

Because it was perfect

 

You don’t have to buy me coffee

But we could go watch her play again

I’m sure I’ll sit there and text like before

Even though you thought I was texting her

I was really texting myself the lyrics that reminded me of us.

 

I’m coming home

I’ll be glad to mend the pieces.

There’s room between my heart.

Those pictures can stop fading.

I love the idea of liking you forever.

But it hurts… to remind myself… that I’ll never be able to replace liking with loving.

It’s probably best if we don’t.

But I know

When all I feel your touch.

And all I see your smile.

I’ll forget

The pain I will soon feel in the morning.

When I lean over to kiss your body.

And realize that you’re still not mine.
