where we fell

50 // think of me

i wanted to be the one to show you the world,

i wanted to be the one who slept by your side,

i wanted to be the only who kept your monsters at bay,

i wanted to be the light of your day.

everywhere i went, i wanted you to be by my side,

i imagined you with me until the day we died.

and although things have changed i hope you think of me.

when you pass by the park on a rainy day

or wear your scarf with the tea colored stain.

whenever you smell the mix of booze and cigarettes,

i hope you think of me.

when you hear my voice on the radio, when i play your song;

or the christmas reruns when we looked like bums.

when times get rough and you feel like life just isn’t enough

i hope you think of me

because in a way you’re the reason why i don’t regret anything in life.

you taught me one thing and it’s that i can love,

something more than myself, more than music, more than anything.

but we never mixed,

no matter how hard we tried,

we were just two opposites who burned each other alive.

you were the fire and i was gasoline,

i was no good for you and you were no good for me.

we don’t want to accept it but we both know it’s true,

that this is the end of me and you.

but i hope you remember the day i met you

and the white cotton mattress where we fell in love.
