new

i thought i couldnt move on but

when i didnt bite your name on my tongue

as i felt a new persons weight on my chest

i knew i was free from your ties

so why cant you leave me alone in my dreams?

wouldnt want you to, though.

its nice to see you and say hello

waking up to a fresh set of tears in my eyes

and now i can not tell if theyre

yours or mine

i dont ask for what i want

when i know youre already gone

i say i need your body,

but what of your soul?

the two aren’t connected, and i think i

need both

to feel some part of my shell

come alive again
