I keep a spare bullet in my shoe
reserved for when I think of
you.

I can't help but freeze up
overheat
and lose control.

You make me forget my name
and only think about you.

I can't look around for anyone else,
but can't concentrate on myself.

My thoughts are no longer my own,
they belong to the wilds
of the heart.

When you give up control to everyone else
you expose more than you ever thought possible
a single word can
cut like knife.

And when they do
one tear
one smile.

Words fly between two people
inches away, but worlds apart
the message is loud and clear

if only it was mutual.

One day, you look back
and realize
what you should have kept
is left behind

And what you've got
isn't what you want

One day you look back
wake up
realise
that you have to draw the line

So goodbye to this moment
because it will never come back

So say goodbye to this moment
but not the memories.
