Numb as we can be

Numb.... Lonely
Staring at the same gloomy rain
dripping down 2 different 
window panes
over 300 miles away
Feeling alone & ashamed,
 full of regret because of how
we hehaved
but not giving up
bc this Actual, Magical,
One of a kind love
is just too unfathomable
 to not crave
its right there out of our reach,
our plans, wants & goals
 so easy to speak
but walls of fear deadlock life's gears,
 and we rolled backwards
without even realizing we were
so far gone, 
my dear
we did this together 
but you gotta honestly tell me
if climbing back up w. me by your side
is going to be too heavy
I can only love you if you let me
I need you just as much,
 You're the only one that gets me
and accepts me,
 and my damaged beyond repair, crazy drug addicted brain
we drive eachother insane
but it could be so much different 
we can be happier than ever
its an uncontrollable animal instinct 
I wish that whenever you got mad
you'd just shut up &  kiss me
before the bullet filled words
rip through my heart
& every single one hits me
like im marked with a bulls eye
all we need is stability,
but the chaos continuously emerges instantly
