I Am Not Okay
I thought about you today
but not in the way I used to
with wondrous eyes and a thirst for adventure
it took three whole months
but now I can say that I was never the problem
but you,
with those brown eyes that could
make me feel everything and nothing all at once
and your heartbeat pumping through my veins
making me your own
I never had a chance
I never had a choice
and that’s not fair
how can you come into my life
and replace every thought with you and not care
this is your fault
but you can’t change the way you’d sing me to sleep
and then leave in the morning
the sunrise never changed
but you sure did
