Waves

The water is calm
Then it's not
The waves crash
I thread hard
Is this my life now?
Swimming in between waves
Hoping I don't drown?

Put yourself in my shoes, she says
Put yourself in my shoes, he says
Think about how hard this is for me, they say
But they both have no idea how it feels
to be betrayed
How it feels to be broken
How it feels to only be ok during those few moments
after I wake when I remember nothing
Why does it feel like I am the one suffering
when they made the mistakes

Time

With every day that passes
With each impatient remark and
anger filled comment
With every doubt that fills my mind
With every mile between us
I wonder how can we possible make this work
when I need the one thing you won't give me

No one is as hot as the Sun

You let someone think
they mattered to you
You let someone think
you wanted them
more than me
You let someone think they
were worth risking us for
You let someone think
they were better than me
You let dirt
think it was better than the sun
When they aren't even in the same
category
You gave them my time
You gave them my attention
You showed them things only I should see
And they showed you things that made me
hate you
You made me feel like nothing
when I am the sun
I am the sun
I am the sun

Never

You will never know what this feels like
You will never know how hard you broke me
You will never know the pain every time I know you see her
You will never know the damage you did
Because I would never do anything like this to you
Because you don't hurt the people you love

Here's to Your Comeback

Loving you has shown me unconditional love
I feel it when I'm crying my eyes dry
When I am biting my tongue
When you frustrate me to silence
When you have broken me to the core
Despite it all, my love for you knows
you can be better.
It knows the love you are capable of giving.
It knows that you are human and you will fail,
But more importantly, my love knows you will
prevail.

you can hurt me baby

you can hurt me baby
God knows you have
and you can break me baby
I know you can
but you should know
no matter what you do
no matter if I stay
or if I go
you will always have my heart,
whole or in pieces
your being is burned in my soul
and your love is the reason
