[x]Sleepless in Orlando.
In the bloodbath
of our youth
She is the one who
always puts pressure on my wounds
The one who tries to
push me out of my own way
Reminding me of the
value in the currency of me
I wish I could have
seen how you loved me so
I wish I could have
seen what was right in front of me
I wish I would have
known what to do with my love for you
But I was as lost
then, as I would be without you now
Every time she tries
to stop my broken record
Her big heart shows
me how empty mine has been
She’ll never give
up on me no matter how much ruin I’ve wrought
Even when part of
fixing me is leaving me broken
I fear the impact
of when your eyes meet mine
I’m afraid I’m
going to get crushed under the weight
Of her being my
everything
While I’m just one
of her things
Even though we’re
2577 miles apart
The distance
between us has always been measured in time
I’m here on the
east coast Just trying to keep up with you –
just trying to stay
alive in your time zone
- - Thank
you for teaching me how to bare my teeth again
