You stayed as long as love allowed,
until my wrongs became too loud.
You didn’t lose me,I let you go,
and that’s a weight I’ll always know.
I let my overthinking take all the space,
and lost the comfort of your face.
I built the silence, I shut you out.

Love is sometimes the quiet ache of staying away, for their happiness, not yours. It's holding back the urge to call, to check in, to be near, because deep down you know they're better off without you. It's swallowing the pain and choosing silence, even when your heart is aching/
Every time I look at you smiling, something inside me breaks a little but through those cracks, flowers bloom too. For your smile, I would do anything and everything, all at once. Something breaks because the reason behind that smile isn’t me and flowers because I love you.
you ripped my heart like it’s the most worthless object to exist. you made my eyes a perfect example of a cascade. you made my soul a perfect example of a cemetery. you made my lips a perfect example of a imprisoned city that had to let a lot of words exit but couldn’t.
