I Never Held Your Hand Because I Didn’t Know If I Would Let Go.

Hearts beat slower when they are reminded of how little they were used;

how often they were ignored.

Sometimes misplaced in your speeches.

I think someone abandoned you.

Lights and skies and minds grow dim.

Toss and turn in your sleep; can't dream, can't think.

Indifference: feels like you have no ground, no sky to see, where is the meaning to anything?

It'll fade to black when your heart gives out

Sometimes memories can get you down, sometimes memories can leave you nameless.

Guess I never understand how people get their motivation

to be cold,

to be cruel,

to be heartless.
