lyrics

I often return
To the moment you appeared
Before my heart
You awakened a fire within me
That I thought had blown out
Since then I haven’t been the same
Better and worse since that day
Your energy calls
The feminine best within me
Desire coursing through me
I have no control
My body’s
Constantly aching
Your scent
Is so familiar to me now
My favorite
Is how it lingers on my skin
After you’re long gone
I only crave to be your peace
Fantasy
Your what if
Your favorite song
And whiskey on moist lips
But really
We played pretend
And I told myself
It was enough
Stolen kisses
In dark spaces
In the light
I’m alone
It was all a bluff
You see I thought
Because you weren’t mine
You could never shatter me
On a pedestal
I placed you
So blindly
But I wanna rise to love
Love that builds me
Brings me to my highest being
I must release your name
From my soul
Remind myself
I’ll never be yours
Nevermore
Nevermore
Never
More
