Just sit here awhile ok?

Yeah I know I heard you right but something in my heart didn't hear it clearly.

Pathetic isn't my color but right now it fits doesn't it?
Scarlett or black won't do me much good because it's you.

How could I ever feel anything but gratitude that you once saw me the same way I will always see you.

I don't need to know why your doing this, because it's taking everything in me just to continue to breath without melting into the floor.

I'm not saying this to make it harder for you, my words unpremeditated just cascade while my mind drowns in a yesterday consumed so long ago.

I need your essence even as it suffocates me, you don't mean to dissolve the fragmented pieces of my soul, but there was no other way I know.

Don't be sorry for doing what comes naturally, this world wasn't meant for us

Did you know why it was you?

You asked me why once so long ago, so have you guessed the answer?


Because I still haven't guessed why I stayed by your side when I knew there was someone out there my heart wanted to see desperately..

Once upon a time when I wanted to love I couldn't and when I wasn't trying I realized it's not up to me or even you

It's yours even if it were less painful for me I'd be lying if I said I didn't really feel this way.

Stop staring at the mess before you, I'm going to be alright so will you because it's what we do.

Tears though beautiful on you shouldn't be there especially now when you've found what you were looking for

I was just here to make sure you made it to the morning, now chase your dreams.
