It Takes Two 073016

It takes two to walk

But we're only one, and I'm only half

It takes two to dance

But I'm only yours when you're not mine.

Love that has never left so it never leaves

Emptiness into my chest with a silent routine

But the light comes in and I can breath again...

Until your memory creeps in and takes a piece of my peace, feeding my anxiety and questioning my being.

For love is not enough when my love is only enough when it's in your sheets.

Giving my soul the gift of an illusion an alley without an exit

So I remain here healing my wounds

Sleeping with regrets because my nights still taste of you

And I can't find my words, so I walk the nights, when my heart is lonesome hoping it all gets solved in your sheets

Walking into the depth of the sky

Where my lies lie in my eyes

And such beauty in my highs

I am all I am and all i am are the tricks and lies that crave in between my thighs.

But my days are better without you.

And so one day we meet again

And my time stops in your face and the floor shakes And I forget my name

And you say something along the lines of "you're mine" but I can not answer for I have changed my soul into a whole new experience for those in need of a stop in between transitions.

See hurt pivots you into versions of the reason why you're hurting.

It takes two to love ,

but you & I are nothing but the cold space in a bed

Love is white and you have tainted

Love is everything and you have turned it into nothing

cheated myself into loving you

wanting to forget for forgetting

That you & I are nothing but a memory in between my sheets
