I found myself breaking
Slowly, and then all at once
My mind turning incomplete
A tragic loss for my body, shaking

 

I found myself romanticizing
The way we were fragile
Touching the clouds of heaven
With pain glorifying

 

I found myself wishing
That you were here next to me
Listening to my beating heart
As it gently went missing

 

I found myself wondering
How you turned so cruel
Screaming your hurtful words
As they left your mouth, stuttering

 

I found myself alone
Wishing upon a shooting star
Testing its powers to heal
The world of hatred and unknown
