I am the tape that holds me together.
I am the soul longing to escape you.
Single massacre of blood shot eyes,
torn between each eyelid.
Blood stain darker still on the surface.
Underneath you I have vanished.
Inside you I have diminished.
Beside you I have become lost.
Still I hold onto myself tighter.
Gripping so I don't disappear from myself.
Knowing still I'll never be able to let you go.
Realizing I must be the tape that holds me together,
or I'll never escape what we once were.

Once again LadyFiend...This is exactly how I am feeling this last couple of weeks...You don't want to stop trying to talk to him but you know you will probably never get the chance to tell him how much you care for him...Trust me I understand this...I feel torn myself right now, but I hope you can start feeling better soon
