These Feelings Aren'T a Friend
There's an uneasiness in the air
nerve endings ending sensation
an unwell redness pooling no pretend
the pace quickens
and there's more space than there's ever been
I know these feelings
and they're not a friend
but this won't last
and I'll fight past
until the next time and the next
"Love don't live here anymore"
you have to breathe
if you want to live
but can you ever live
if you're not loved
I inhale and it feels good
I'll keep holding on
to hope
like I know I should
