Dead Weight
All you have to do is be you, and I fall.
Like dead weight.
Only, this is the most alive I’ve ever been. Forgive me when I downplay the joy that I’m feeling. I don't mean to.
That’s just my fear talking.
That’s just old wounds whispering warnings. That’s just my knee-jerk response from a heart still healing.I say things like,
“I know it won’t always be like this”, and you shrink into yourself.
Your smile wilts like a dying rose that was full a moment ago.
