Losing my grip
on reality
as you slip
through my fingers
washing me
out of your life
with these tears
that now streak
down my cheeks
staining my skin
burning like acid
as every word you ever spoke becomes a lie
the only thought that remains, keeping me up all night and day spinning through my mind
becuz i honestly thought
you’d always be mine.
