KEEPING THE BROKEN

@syazwani14cats

I

Maybe I need to drown in my own thoughts,

Or maybe I just need more time,

And maybe I need someone to wake me up,

And convince me that I’m fine

That I’m not looking at ashes escaping from my fingertips,

Or to have it drilled into my brain

That waiting stings no matter how I try to look away from it.

II

I’ve seen the reality you built for us,

The stars I hung up in the skies are still there,

Traces of memories we left are untouched,

Yet none feels real and before long it’ll all fade,

That sanctuary feels too alien for me, for you even more,

And now there’s nothing to come back to.
