Tori

So I’ll live my life lost,

And maybe one day I’ll find my way back to you

The red strokes and clear droplets

The way the pills were scattered

The blueness of your skin

The white wings under your weight

The stillness of the night

It was not art

It’s always there just in the back of my mind

Waiting for the day when it’s strong enough to consume me

And drown me once and for all

It’s the heartbreak of remembering

To miss someone this much

But since you left

I’ve been haunted

By the memory of your love

The way you wrapped them, so tightly

I can feel your heart beating

And the way that it stopped

No one did. 

And i guess you caught me by surprise

Coming into my life so quickly

And leaving just as fast.

With stars behind my eyes

I take one last look

Before saying goodbye

The way sleep is when it’s not plagued with memories

I hope you’re somewhere so much nicer

Because down here on earth

An angel couldn’t survive
