You walk away with such a frigtening silence.
Our throats stuck with tears, cheeks stained.
When did you lose your passion? and if you can recall where it left you i promise ill tear that place apart to find it.
"Id rather be alone than have you"
But I'd rather hold my breath when you come around.
Id rather suffocate in your presence.
Your presence, I came up with ways to escape it.
And I broke the strings, and I despise myself for it.
You drag me by it as you please but im so in love with you it feels less like dragging and more like im floating;
As i gawk at you, wide eyed, in complete admiration.
Then you hear the most silent thud, I couldnt even hear you dropping me to the floor.
I shook it off, and you're gone.
I won't even try to scream your name.
Im cutting at the last string with my only pair of scissors left just praying you wont see me.
Theyre not sharp enough anyways.
You probably watch me, try and escape my addiction to you from a distance.
You maybe even crack a smile
I could just get up and leave.
You didnt speak to me for months.
But you found me right where youve always left me
Dull scissors in one hand, our last string in the other.
And a sign across my lips that reads "please come back"
You'll take the scissors from my hand. And replace them with your own hand.
I always love a good old game of
"I'm gonna hold you until you think ill never leave and be gone before you know it"
Youre like a ticking time bomb
I constantly anticipate your absence.
And constantly anticpate for your presence in the mean time.
Youd give me more time in between.
So maybe by the time you get back, i can build up the strength to break your worn out string youve tied around me.
And finally just fucking leave.
