I love you more than anything

Sometimes I forget, maybe you do too, but

Those words don't have any meaning

How many lines do we have to cross, before we say

Don't hold me, when I cry out for you

Don't call my name, when I need to find you

Words were never ghosts, until I heard you say

Every time I feel your touch pressed against me

I get lost in the whirlwind of what could be

Your deep blue eyes look at me, and I have to say

All the lakes we swam together in have frozen

All the leaves we covered our branches with have fallen

How can we face the truth, if you keep promising

We built homes inside each other's hearts

We buried ourselves inside each other's souls

If thoughts were ink, tattoed on my body, they would say

Our words bled from a thousand cuts, we sliced into our skin

Our puzzle doesn't fit anymore, our pieces are too broken

Love is supposed to be honest, you can't keep pretending

We could write a different ending

Our story won't change, no matter how much you wish

Peter loved Wendy, the way Cinderella loved Charming

The way

I love you more than anything
