I want to feel his sweatshirt rub against my skin
I want to feel safe
His arm wrapped around me
My head on his shoulder
I can feel my heart pounding against his chest
The feel of the cotton rubbing against my skin
Knowing i’m safe when i'm in his arms
Knowing i'm safe when i’m with him
And when i let him go
It makes me cry
It makes me die inside
It feels like a slice of my heart was cut off
I tell myself,
Sometimes you have to let go of what you love the most
I love him
He loved me
It is hard to remember when we were together
And now when I think about him I think of
After all we have been through,
We are just strangers with memories
Our memories were good we were not,
We once loved each other,
Now we love others
But now I know
The ones who were quick to walk away,
never intended to stay
I want him back
He wants me back
But i can’t turn back,
Because when i walked away,
He didn't run after me
Now we are lost, like two ships at sea
Now we need to find land,
New land
