There was a time
When you'd have dropped
Everything
And anything
To help me
When my thoughts raced
So fast that my lungs did too
And the day
You sped off,
Pretending like I wasn't
1,000 feet above the ground
Crashing down
Into the pavement beside your car
That was the day I knew,
I didn't mean as much to you.
That was the day
It was all confirmed
You can go now,
Back to your rock.
To hide away,
Ignoring the clock.
I'm done now
Chasing what's been mangled
Jumbled,
Tangled,
Tossed away,
Like plastic
Washing up
In the bay
Killing the life around it
Suffocating the beauty
That once was so pure.
I'm tired of dreaming
Of a day I could rest
Nestled against your chest
Without feeling
My lungs contort.
This is a failed mission,
I think it's time to abort.
