L.A.T.

L.A.T.

Why am I still shedding tears over her?
I gave her my all and got nothing in return
I want to fly away from myself and never return

I’m torn apart staring at the wall
My home has become a prison
Images of her face float through my mind

Things should be better
It never had to get to this point
Maybe we got too comfortable too fast
Or maybe she just lied to both of us

Anywhere I’m with her feels like home
Why is she not still in my arms?
I gave her the world she wanted
And all of me that I didn’t think I had left

Then she burned us down to the ground
Every memory up in smoke
But she can’t bury what we both know
This was a once in a lifetime shot

She’ll never find another to give her what I can

I’ve said it so many times, but it bears repeating on every page
I miss the random acts
I miss the laughter followed by a snort
I miss the spooning in bed
I miss waking up next to her smiling face
I miss our hands interlocked as we walk through the park

Now it’s all slipping away
Out of my hands and field of view
And it’s killing me inside
We’re almost there, don’t give up now
