Breathe

Don't forget about us.

It feels like it’s been forever

Since I’ve seen your face

The day you left, that September

I regret that I cannot remember

You

And the way that you smiled.

 

Hush now

I’m closer than you think

Just close your eyes and sigh

Right beside you I lie

Me

I am yours, as I was then.

 

My heart betrays my head

You were never here

You and I…that was my fantasy

A dream of false ecstasy

No

I won’t fall under your spell again.

 

Listen to you

This isn’t the way you speak

Sweat and tears have made you hard

Trying times have left you scarred

Yes

I will return to you when time allows.

 

This bitterness inside of me

Threatens to eat me up alive

Every time I think of what has passed

I think of things that didn’t last

Love

How can I believe in this?

 

Be still

Let these thoughts wash over you

Forget everything but us now

I’ll touch your skin, kiss your brow

Love

Breathe, and everything will be alright.

I really love how this came out. :D
It reminds me of SasuSaku...I can't be the only one who sees this.
