Sometimes days go by without thoughts of you and I exhale. Keeping busy so as not to face myself and loss, I bury my emotions. It hurts, thinking of you, I and love. The depth and height of the love I felt for you only God understands. First, in thinking of you after, I was hurt and angry. The weight of wasted years and wasted love squeezed my heart in agony. Now I am like a stranger watching an old movie thats been watched before. The emotions and feeling over the scenes get blurred over time, the scenes not as crisp as they used to be. My brain tells me lies but my heart knows the truth. Part of me, my heart will always belong to you. But that part shrinks day by day. Our love was sweet yet doomed in hindsight. Didnt want to exhale my love for you. But life makes fools of lovers and I must. I exhale all the laughter, the smiles, the passion and loyalty you invoked in me. Its time to inhale new experiences and give my lungs a chance to breath perfume de love passion. Its time to let our love go from my head, my heart and from my soul. Its time to exhale. emotions. It hurts, thinking of you, I and love. The depth and height of the love I felt for you only God understands. First, in thinking of you after, I was hurt and angry. The weight of wasted years and wasted love squeezed my heart in agony. Now I am like a stranger watching an old movie thats been watched before. The emotions and feeling over the scenes get blurred over time, the scenes not as crisp as they used to be. My brain tells me lies but my heart knows the truth. Part of me, my heart will always belong to you. But that part shrinks day by day. Our love was sweet yet doomed in hindsight. Didnt want to exhale my love for you. But life makes fools of lovers and I must. I exhale all the laughter, the smiles, the passion and loyalty you invoked in me. Its time to inhale new experiences and give my lungs a chance to breath perfume de love passion. Its time to let our love go from my head, my heart and from my soul. Its time to exhale.
