truth be told
i know
we were both only trying
to do the right thing
but what did you expect?
a picnic in the park?
baby, you dont go to waterloo
and come back unscathed.

being near you
these days
is like holding my breath
underwater
eyes squeezed shut
heart in slow motion
my chest ready to burst.
but when we are done
and i’m gasping for air
i secretly wish
that you were still here.
