It’s the kind of night when
I’d rather keep myself wide awake
with thoughts of you,
than give into exhaustion –
and find myself peacefully sleeping
with dreams of us,
because eventually I would have to stop dreaming –
eventually I would have to wake up –
Losing you all over again.
That’s not the kind of morning
I want to wake up to.

The difference between men and women is if/when a woman uses a man she still thinks about him and what could have been. When a man uses a woman he never thinks of her again.

I hope I never leave your mind, even though I’ve left your heart.

Never give someone a permanent space in your heart if they’ve only allowed you a temporary place in their life.

You see it flying, hear the buzz
Shoo it away just because
It’s victims cannot heal
Then one day, out of the blue
It sneaks up on you
Bites you right in the feels
Symptoms start to kick in
Medicine is non-existent
There’s no cure for it’s bite
Smiling uncontrollably
Losing grasp of reality
Clinging to the happiness
Habits start to form
There is comfort in his arms
The sound of his voice
Then comes the worst thing
You feel like you’re flying
And you look down
The three words come out
Your wings break and you fall down
It was a hallucination
You thought you were in love
But got bit by the bug
There is no healing
The heart begins to break
Your guard was down, it’s too late
You’re a casualty of love
