why does lying to you feel like a cardinal sin?
you left me in ruins
oh i tried to end it
you got there first
a recurring dream
an unpleasant nightmare
nothing i say or do matters anymore
when i’ve been exiled from your periphery
this reality beguiles me
lover
my hand is yours for the taking
the mending
the nights we spent cradling each others dreams
our existence is a fantasy
i see what i want to see
none of it happened
born out of desperate longing
for affection and whatever we’ll take
until it’s gone
