Pisces

Stop acting so guarded You must mistake the tenderness Of a lover invited For the pity you wanted to escape Lend me some closure What enticed you to run from my embrace What did I amount to Was I more than a trial for you to face Driving home after work, trying to clear my head (Only filling it further with you) It starts to rain I remember the street lights bleeding together in streaks Across my window It's one of those moments that forces me to remember How you tethered me (And my own eyes as I cried too) The entire afternoon the world has been collapsing around me And it hurts knowing that nobody else sees it Thought to myself on the drive home that If the Earth was blown to bits in an instant That it might just be okay (I'm aware of how sardonic this makes me sound) This is the first of many nights that I can no longer share with you (And though I may want to still) I won't be texting at 2am 'I love you' because my Costar says to When I call it back to you I run the risk of swapping out The memories we made alone With the archetype I've grown In every pisces I have known (And so now) I'm putting all these thoughts to rest Of horoscopes and stellar cause With the hopes that I've immortalized in this Not the trauma when you left But the feeling when we kissed
