Familiar
something about you is so familiar
no matter how long we drift apart
I can't help but love you when you're near
maybe how you were the first
the first person to stick to look into my heart
and still stay after what you got hurt
maybe how you never really left
sure, you aren't always around
but I feel you with me in every breath
but when you do leave
I forget to love myself all over again
because without your hand in mine I can hardly breathe
so maybe being familiar is what made me cold
because loving you comes too easy
you already worked your way into my soul
and how do you expect me to love myself, when you finally leave me?
