The words aren’t coming anymore
but maybe that’s for the best
Something you brought back
better left for when I need them
So much that you gave to me
and every bit you took away
It’s taken me far too much time
to learn to live without it all
Life goes on despite my dreams
the failure of my self-perception
not everything is ever what it seems
Levels of importance placed
on meanings and connections
aren’t necessarily the same
from all involved
A lesson that I should’ve learned
long before I ever met you
And all those things I tried to tell you
were mostly aimed right at myself
A shame that neither one of us would listen
But I hear it now
as the signal fades
the meaning of it all lost
in the great unknowing
So here I am
thinking about everything
thinking about nothing
and wishing that I’ll finish moving on
knowing that I’ll never see again
what I saw in you in the beginning
