Goodbye/hello

  · 

it's a bit late in the day

to say

i don't wanna hurt you.

it's a bit late in the day

to still message

at midnight

and say

can i come bite?

it's a bit late in my life

To be hung up

on hang ups

and hang up every time

we try to touch

base.

You act like

It's a bit early for all these feelings

for all this heart felt revealing

can we just stay casual

for a while

while i watch you

squirm and try not to feel anything vile.

Here on in

it's about to get real

you unwrapped something intense

and you cannot shove it back in the drawer

and pretend

that's not what the heart is for.

we cannot go back

to hello

and we are new to this

it's been lovely

and nice

and stuff

no , we have to take a risk

Come to the castle and climb up the walls you built

climb up the crystal silk

crash down into a bed of ink.

There are some doors here

and i invite you

to not be a hinge

not keep flapping back and forth

in the wind

decide if you are out or in.

don't linger

in thoughts of being in

between .

I'm done with being

what you never allowed me to be.
