I been here a million times before,
the numbness as I walk out the door.
My heart heavy like a drum,
thinking about the nights I kept you warm.
Nothing like being intertwined in your warmth.
Skin on skin, watching the sun,
I become undone,
as the sun rises from the perspective of your eyes,
knowing inside it’s all a damx lie.
“You crave me,”
how lazy,
can my emotions be?
Lying in the sheets,
wrapped in your deceit,
how does this comfort me,
how do I feel pain and relief?
How can you look at me,
like I’m the enemy?
Push me away, when I always made sure you were okay.
Never mistake lust for love, you’ll never rest where you lay.
