Pulling away


Pulling away 

I can feel you pulling away

A sinking but familiar feeling 

A part of me is keeping strong 

A part of me wants to fall apart 

Am I repeating a cycle?

Of loneliness and leaving

Seems like everything’s alright  

I’m crying almost every night

I’m falling into pieces everytime 

When we’re together I don’t want to be apart 

Losing my mind on what it is and what it’s not

Deep down I know the truth

But I don’t want to hear it

Because communication and comprehension is something we do

We don’t tip toe around the upsets, the ugly , the bumpy truth

We blow through that bitch

Together, demolishing that shit

Tearing walls down 

Fixing what ain’t right

Are you scared of losing me?

Cause I’m here and now

The only thing that’s changing is distance 

Not my love

It hurts to know you don’t see what you’re doing or you’re doing it on purpose 

Fear

It’s a crippling thing 

But it can ruin something good 

Please don’t make the same mistake with me that others did

Losing you is not something I want to do

Aftermath

Sloppy kisses, and rough gripping ,licking, sucking fucking

Making love in new positions 

Something I’m gonna be missing 

But pushing me away won’t fix that hurt bringing me closer will..

Deserting me when you are deserving of me

Will cause irreversible damage
