To love you from a distance

Words I thought I’d never have to say

To understand the heartbreak shows dissonance

To love another but still love you

And have to love you from a distance

Irreplaceable they say

You proved I could be replaced

You can be replaced by someone new

A love he shows me is pure and true

But I’m not irreplaceable, and neither are you

Forgetting you

I never thought I’d have to

With weaseling your way into every corner of me

You left a mark on my heart

But never on my lips

Making it that much easier to forget you

You’re a figment of my mind

As are my tears 

As are my bittersweet memories

You are nothing to me

Nothing but a figment of my mind

An echo of my once suicidal thoughts

A terrible echo that I never want to hear again

But now

That echo is finally silent

Replaced by the sweet sound of honey
