Slipped away with the sinking sun.
Now like a river bursting its bulging banks
We spew onto the pavement as one.
A sweaty heat sprung from frantic dancing feet
Collides with a gulp of icy freshness,
Spreading an air of aloof excitement
A mysterious mist veiling anticipation breathless.
People collect themselves and find each other,
We are all as one like sisters and brothers.
The crowd huddles around the one with the plan,
The night is still young we need somewhere to land.
I single you out.
(You always stuck out,
Shooting up so high
With your head in the sky.)
The old ache I almost greet as a friend
Attacks without fail, back to haunt me again
And it’s not long till it creeps up to my chest
Clutching my heart and constricting my breath.
My eyes stick to you though I’m tearing them away
I hate having to see you but I want you to stay
I know it’s not possible but I wish there was a way
For us to work, but WAIT I remember that day
b r e a t h e…………..
I clutch onto my friends, hanging on for the sanity
My mind flutters back to its home
We wander through the streets, flashing lights, distant beats
I struggle with being alone
I decide there and then, to act like a friend
To smile sweetly and laugh at your jokes
Surely being friendly, can only lead to where I want to be
Surely you’ll feel what I’ve felt all along.
WRONG
You confuse me, do you use me? I feel your eyes staring through me
Do you see me? Don’t wanna be me, you perceive me then deceive me
I hate you, I love you, I want to hurt you but you’re too you
I know we’re through, I lose, I hate it but I know it’s true
One minute I think you care, but suddenly I’m not even there
I tried my best to really care; for once I really did care
You left me, that’s plenty enough pain
But you can’t go on playing games
You look me in the eyes
With that meaning underlying
You make me die inside
You know
You have the power to make me believe your love is alive.
I need the power to walk away from this night.
I need the power to walk away from you.
As I
b r e a t h e…………..
I know
It could have been so perfect
But was it even worth it?

Finding an Ending
