After You Left

Without you

How can I create enough for you?

Enough to give you wings to fly away

From your troubles and your fears

And yet ,

I'm pushing you to stay

To stave away my tears.

How can I write enough for you?

Write a happy ending

Without denying us our truth

That we're not actually that good

And never got our youth.

How can I die enough for you?

I want to set you free

I've made you worlds of written cages

Cause I'm terrified of being me

Without you.
