3 hrs 13 mins 48 sec

how long does it take to watch it all crumble
july 1 1999
november 4 2005

came back home with him almost a year ago
november 7 to be exact

somewhere in the midst of our conversation i switched my rings to my other hand
i always said it was just show for the nyc thugs

feels a little naked now

put him to bed with words
the most important ones i hope he heard through his sleep
i love you
i love you
i love you

we agreed to stop pretending
pictures have been deleted

i'm fucking tired

he said someone else gets to meet you
after all this
and still all i want is you

why

gave me some reasons
always does

fighting now
it is worth the save
but not like this

so this is it
the break

it started with the breaking of the eucharist
it ended with a heart

no time wasted
no regrets

we're family

which means there is no sugar-coating
it is the end of a chapter

but we are family

which means to love and support
no matter what

to love someone more than your own desires

he said you always do what you think is right
one of his reasons

he really believes that
i really believe that

the cookie didn't crumble
it was just eaten

just cooking up a new batch
i said we're doing more for each other like this
then pretending there is still something to eat

exhausted

no poetic lines
not this morning

a year of stripping us down
a year of really looking at each other

and arriving at the courage to say good bye to us
shaking hands with the end
