Dear Jess
Dear Jess
I'm not sure that you realize
But you've left me a mess
And people tell me to forget
But you're drenched in my veins
I use it for an excuse
To let go of the reigns
Because I like to dwell
You're used to that, right?
You're the thumbtacks on my eyes
That keep me up at night
The voices in my head
That say I'm not enough
I'd say that you're wrong
But it'd only be a bluff
There's a first for all lost
And you're everything
All that makes me tick
All that makes it sting
I was lost in the thought
Of something I couldn't feel
Something not there
Somthing not real
These keys are my release
Of what I can't unlearn
The scars that you left
My self inflicted burns
You're a complex mind
One I don't understand
Breathe with the wind
and try if I can
But you can't catch
What is not yet free
Friend, you're just as troubled
Just as troubled as me
So with a heavy heart
I want you to know
That it's been hard
But I've finally let go
