I lost myself in the space between yesterday and tomorrow
and its all because you said I love you but
you don’t seem like you do
when you stare down cold and ignorant every time I say I
care for you
and I just force a smile and watch the rain fall on dead plants
You know when things don’t match
forlorn hearts always try to find a reason why

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.
