like a melody in my head

"You still cross my mind from time to time. And I mostly smile. Still so set on finding out where we went wrong and why... So I retrace our every step with an unsure pen, trying to figure out what my head thinks, but my head just ain't what it used to be. And then again, what's the point anyway?"

burning with jealousy, every which way i turn to see, across the room, across the hall, rest my head against the corner of the wall don't fall off your chair read the week seven reading, the week SEVEN READING, just underline it in red and don't forge it in your brain, "i bet if i had to do it all again, i'd feel the same pain", i'd do it again in a heartbeat, fall at your feet, don't hit your head on the car you've gone too far now, lets all be big spoons, i smiled wryly to myself, i hope i see you soon. cry me a river, cry me a lake, if tears drowned kittens would you go to a wake? i want to row across a black and white lake, in your dreams i used a quick unpick to pick you apart at the seams, i ripped a hole in my heart, i wrote your name in stone, started running backwards in circles pricked my finger on a rose, not a thorn, broken petals on the road, i wept whle you crept up, swept me off my feet and tried to carry me home...

*deep breath*

in the rearview mirror i understand your smiles, just a bland facade stretching my brokenness for miles, i felt your arms around my waist and i felt warmer than the sun, but then you left i was bereft, and i watched as she lay crying in the mud. i felt invincible, until i became invisible,
so i talked and walked to keep myself awake, but as i watched your dancing blue eyes i realised my mistake, the light that chased me down the stairs and quickly out of sight, i took flight, because deep down i know that you were right.

"so no matter how we part i hold you sweetly in my head, and if i do not miss a part of you a part of me is dead."
