The promises of forever laced in my mind,
The moments of heartache buried in time.
Our parallel universes falling apart,
The familiar longing tugging at my heart.
The world drowned in black and white,
While we struggled to stay ashore in the colourless calm.
The sinking feeling beckoning me to feign pretense in
the end of you and I.
Your arms around me wanting to feel like home,
The distant look in your eyes,
The heartbreaking feeling in mine.
Your hands slowly caress my cheeks,
Healing the scars you etched within.
You lean in to kiss,
The promise of forever lost on my lips.
