the line between you & me

torture

Somewhere I exist where flowers bloom year-round
Somewhere I exist where time doesn't turn

In that space where the best parts of me exist,
You're there, too— and you love me

Here I exist just to please anyone that comes my way
Here I exist as an echo of who I wish to be

In this space, in reality, there is remorse and
There is an ache perpetrating my heart

I wish I held the power to change the things that
Broke me; I would make sure you knew how much
I wanted us to be different

Living without you is like living without water
It's there, except I've chosen to drink soda instead
But soda doesn't quench your thirst

I'm sorry that I wasn't strong enough to try to
Change what I thought I could ignore
If I'd known it would end up this way
I would've fought my demons away

I miss you so much;
I don't know when or if I'll ever not love you.
