You and I are Destined to Fail

Doomed…

I feel like we are destined to be apart

That life has thrown us a twisted curve.

I’ll only be able to admire your smile from afar.

Destined to love you at a distance.

My anxiety is killing me

I just want the truth

Are we doomed to be miserable?

And apart

~

I refuse to play games

I refuse to be just another woman in your life

I refuse to be another trophy

Or a pawn

~

It’s so dark

In this space alone

There’s only light at the sound of your voice

Am I prepared to lose?

This not knowing is weighing me down

Washing over my face

And making it difficult to breathe again

~

It doesn’t matter if I lose

I’ll always be in love with you.

It seems like this is destined to fail,

But I’ll be there regardless

I’m standing,

I’m drowning,

I’m trying to understand,

Everything about you.
