Solitude

You make me feel alone
It’s like rolling a stone
Up times hill
Each and every day
Only to be crushed under its weight every night as I try to fall asleep
Memories of us are relived in my mind
And they feel like being eaten alive
You were my medusa
Turning me into stone when I wanted to flirt with your eyes
You were my syren
Bringing me closer to deadly shores
But now
You’re just like the rest
I’ve been cast away like yesterday’s news
And your Boulder squishes my soul

Split between fighting or running
Divided by words left unsaid
Blocked by an ancient curse
My misery festers
Left by myself after the high of being together
I miss what we had
And I know
It will never return

I was just a sacrifice for destiny
Doomed to live in the present
While owing a debt to the future
And being chained to my past
Incapable of love
Especially towards myself
It took its toll on us
And eventually to my health
Lying is a dangerous way to live
And I just couldn’t believe the truth
That’s why we ended up
Living under different roofs
The space between us now
Might as well be from here to the sun
But the truth is that we were over before we had begun
