i've known you for a year
and i still love you just as much
as i did the day we met
but you don't know i love you
and i know you only love me to an extent
but i'm telling you now
i love you to no extent
and i always will
but i have to let you go
because i need a love that's limitless
and you're holding yourself back
and that's ok
you're still healing
but now it's my turn to hold myself back
because i can't keep pushing myself into your sword
when you won't fall onto mine
and i know that i'll bleed
and i know it will leave a deep scar
but i'll look on it with love
knowing that the blood i spilt was all for you
even if you didn't want it
i have no regrets darling
because you were worth every drop
the pain was outweighed by the joy you gave me
the sacrifice was worth the way you made me feel
and it's only a flesh wound
it will heal with time
and i hope one day you find a cloud to land on
instead of a sword to fall on
because you have so many scars
you don't deserve anymore
so let me pull the sword out of my chest
let me kiss you one last time with blood stained lips
let me walk away
and i know you will still want to be friends
but i need to do this on my own darling
just let me go knowing i will forever love the scent of cigarette smoke
and that you can always find me at sunset cafe
that watching pulp fiction won't ever be the same
that jean dujardin will forever remind me of you
that the taste of glass bottle coca cola will always be on the tip of my tongue
know that i will always love you
i will always love you
so thank you for giving me the best year of my life
i wish you every happiness in the world
and if fate allows us to find each other again
please say hello
but until then
goodbye
i love you
i love you
i love you
That whole last part I fully understood because falling in love totally changes tons of things to mean more about one certain person and just yes, I get it, this was so good.
