Ghost
When I get attached to someone I cling so tightly with holes in my hands
Can never get a true grasp

do you wanna know a secret
Let me tell you a secret:
just don’t get attached.
Let me tell you another secret:
it doesn’t work 

untitled
I never realized how much I shut down and shut off when you left
How many key parts of who I am, the things I love most, actually came from you
How many things despite how much I love them I’ve neglected and ignored so it didn’t hurt
Dulled the shine
Pretended not to care
And now the more I embrace those parts of me the more I wish I could share it with you
But I don’t know you
And you don’t know me
So I will just let it be.
