Living In Your Letters

Always assuming the worst
but your going on nonetheless
and theres nothing to cushion your heart
lead full
Letters from further away
you’re pulling me close to home
and theres something to cushion my callus size
and i know that you hope for
long good good-byes
embracing for forevers
and falling in your eyes (in your eyes.)
Pouring over photographs
i’m living in your letters
breathe deeply from this envelope
it smells like you
and i can’t be
without that scent
it’s filling me with
all you meant to me
to me.
Continunaly failing these trials
but you stand by me nonetheless
and you won’t let me sink
though i’m begging you
Phone calls from further away
and messages on my machine
but i don’t ever tell you this distant seems terrible
And theres no need to test my heart
with useless space
these rows go on forever
there’ll always be a place
for you
in my heart
So i’ll hit the pavement
its gotta be better
than waiting
and pushing you far away
'cause i’m scared
so i’ll take my chances
and head on my way
up there
'cause turning to you
is like falling in love when your 10
