You say you love me
You say you love me
I take a deep breath and repeat that in my mind
You say you love me
As your holding me crying.
I can feel your hand digging into my arm
It’s like your hanging on as if your life depended on it.
I look up
You say you love me
You see the fear in my eyes
I pull away
You say you love me
He’s right I cant leave
He loves me
I can feel your presence in the air
I want today to be a good day
I could cut the tension with a knife it’s so intense
You say you love me
Then why do I feel like i’m walking on eggshells
Stay in line I cant mess up today
One wrong move, one wrong word
I mess up
Deep down I knew it was inevitable
I see his eyes and I know he’s no longer in love
He’s dark and I know it
I can feel my lungs slowly collapsing
I try to fix it
Makes everything worse
I beg for it to stop
It’s getting cold
I feel something on the floor
It’s wet
Looking down seeing my hands
Their red
Everything’s getting fuzzy, grainy
I’m short of breath
Scared
This isn’t real
I take a deep breath and repeat in my mind
He says he loves me
The only thing that lets me breathe even for a moment..
He says he loves me..
He loves me..
You said you love me.
