Love

So, send me off with your love, I’ll fly like a dove. This is something like a movie and idk how it ends. I don’t wanna feel like I’m about to die. And I know you don’t feel right when I’m leaving. I learned that love is embracive. I need a reason to care, give me a reason to care, I need a reason to wake up. You can’t go on thinking nothings wrong, but bye. The feelings I got for you is true. Without you, I ain’t the same. Don’t wake me cause I’m dreaming. My love for you was bulletproof, but you’re the one who shot me. Running like moths to their flame. Love is nothing but a weakness. There is no agony like being strong when no one knows you’re sick. The first time I felt pain, you took that away. Even angels die too, they die in the dark. I’ll be going through withdrawal of you. Now it wanders lost and wounded, this heart that I misplaced. If I were a deep breath, you’d be a cigarette. Can’t stop thinking of your diamond mind, careful creature. I’ve never felt stronger than when you’re with me. When I am gone, I hope that you will stay. You made those promises, don’t take em back now. Keep me hanging on so contagiously. So carefree and so content, I wish I could shine as bright as you. Tell me how am I supposed to breathe, losing you is choking me. And truth be told, I blame the monsters in your head. Don’t make me hold on when you’re not. Still I’m lying here tonight, wishing I was by your side. I just can’t calm down; grieve, I know it’s what I need. I look to you and I see nothing, I look to you to see the truth. My therapist said not to see you no more; she said you’re like a disease without a cure. But you got me walking in circles like a dog on a lead. I think about you when the night is cold and dark. You’re all I wanted, just let me hold you like a hostage.
