Before I met you, my lips
Had never tasted such love
Nor had they tasted such sorrow

Where did we go wrong, my dear?
We used to crash into each other like waves during a storm
As if I went from drowning
To realizing I was always able to breathe
As long as I was with you

Oh how I miss being able to breathe

The current has taken control
The further I drift from you, my love
The more my lungs fill with the truth
That you aren't coming back

I would have fought forever if it meant
Never having to lose you
Never having to lose the closest to heaven that I've ever felt

It hurts too much to talk with gravel in my lungs
As if each time I speak your name
Water rushes through the tears in my chest
Yet I am still -
                                   Sincerely, Yours
