Grew To Love
I feel like I'm losing
all that I've reached for-
all that I've finally earned.
When I step forward,
you step back.
When I feed you a smile,
you feed me bullshit.
Is this you?
I never was one to get
along with strangers,
and lately I've proven
that point.
These hands feel your
hesitation,
these eyes see your
doubt,
this heart knows your
keeping something...
tucked down and hidden
in the mystery of you.
No more smiles to light
my dark days,
no more words to calm
my raging sea of insecurities,
no more you
that I grew to love...
