unreal.

Sickeningly slowly,
the edges of a cut
will begin to heal.

A soft pink scar
is all that's left
of what felt so real.

Days of rest,
hours of waiting
finally reveal

The mark of time
from getting over
what you made me feel.

lyrics provided by James Blunt.

"Did I disappoint you, or let you down?"

Well, did I? Why did you end what was between us so quickly?
And then once you asked for space, why wouldn't you let me go?!
Damn you, why can't you let me go. It keeps me hanging on, and my arms are getting tired of trying to hold you, my legs are tired from chasing after you.

"I am a dreamer, and when I wake. You can't break my spirits, it's my dreams you take."

I looked into my future and I saw you. Do you actually understand the depth of this? I saw YOU. Not where I would be or anything else about ME. I saw YOU.
But you walked away. You asked me to just forget it.

"I'm so hollow, baby. I'm so hollow. I'm so.. I'm so.. I'm so hollow."

Yeah, I am. It's your damn fault.
Now i'm stuck with this song on repeat and trying to forget you again.
What's worse, the words and memories that keep tugging at me when I thought at last they were gone.

"You touched my heart, you touched my soul, you changed my life and all my goals.
Love is blind and that I knew; my heart was blinded by you."

That's it, then- change. There was too much change in both of us and the world around us.
I was blinded, willingly, but I now cast that aside.
I can see, and I am looking past you.
It doesn't mean that I can see through the tears, but I can brush them away as I brush past you.

Goodbye, my lover.
