We are infinite


I have been thinking
And I know that's already awful
But I've been thinking
About us
 
About how we aren't going to last
About how I don't look the same
About how my mind is in a new spot
About how I have more fear now
 
I know I shouldn't be scared
Because really what is there 
But I am completely scared 
 
About how I'm going to die
About how I could get into a wreck 
About how I could be humiliated 
About how he could break my heart
 
And I think he loves me
Even if I am a complete loser
I think he loves me
 
By the way he holds ideas I throw
By the way he caresses my cheek
By the way he takes care 
By the way he works more
 
And I guess I'm infinite
Even the idea is
Because I'm still thinking
 
Like about how this all started
Like about how I'm lonely
Like about how I'm forgotten
 
And I guess I am infinite
Even when I feel like dying
Because I'm breathing
 
Even when I'm fuming
Even when I'm crying
Even  when I want to be withered dead
 
And that makes us each infinite
Because we find a way to last. 
We grow
 
We learn
We become
Infinite
