Forever Home Again


Sometimes I wish I were an innocent child untainted and untouched, scrapes and cuts are easier healed than a shattered heart. I have always vocalized the wrong thing to say, but no one ever told me that love was not the easiest game to play. One million words could never pull me home, I know this because I have tried, neither could one million tears, I know this because I have cried. I don't want to spend the days, nights, and seasons wishing I were there, and I don't want to live my life wondering why he doesn't care. To be happy I would do anything. To set this straight I would try everything. This time could it turn around? But I will never say forever, because forever doesn't exist, and I will never say forever because forever is a myth. Forever may be what you think, and forever may be what you feel, but forever isn't real. So if you say forever, please be prepared to forgive and forget forever because forever is misplaced.
