Sadness keeps killing me.
We tried to keep alive, something that died long before:
Every illusion that kept us together, every promise that made us forget.
“Nothing gold can stay” and people never stop leaving.
I already know what it feels like when my heart stops beating.
What I’ve learned from this: no place seems far enough from you.
I think about my favorite colours but they will never cover anything.
You still wreck me and my fucking mind. I don’t have any place to stay. Your silhouette is all I see. I am on my own. It’s in the way you looked at me ‘cause nothing replaces your smile. Now, I crossed your face: memories no more! And I thought it would make a difference but I am weak and I feel the need to share with you.
My hands still shiver, like in that moment that we first kissed,
now that we part ways: there’s so much left to say, so many thoughts to carry, but I am helpless. My lips can’t move and my mouth is shut.
It’s just a memory that slowly fades away and my breath still writes letters in the air. I miss you and I can’t get over you. The curtain fell, for everyone to see, we faced the distance between us but the audience left.
