I can't help but want to be alone during dusk.
I want to witness the end of the day standing alone
Reminding me that it all fades away in the end.
But I will remain, at least to myself
I am the one person
I never have to lose.
And that makes me beautiful.
Sometimes one just feels like they should level up in life
We're always searching for the next bit of meaning that our lives can hold
You go through high school
Then college
Then a career, or maybe you start a family
Myself, I'd like to hope that life is an open world
Instead of a side-scroller.
Lethargic is such an ugly word.
You can blame your downfalls
On lack of skill, or trying too hard,
Or not enough opportunity
But when you are lethargic
You fail by default
For no reason
It is a word filled
With negative space
I still think of you.
Even though to call you my lover would be a lie,
You are still with me.
My brother in arms, at my side,
And I at yours.
I still think of you.
Please know that.
My wondering eyes followed your wandering hands
Across my skin like it was silk
Like I was the strongest fragile thing
You’d ever seen
