pavement

I'll fixate my eyes in your direction with self-reflections Torture the thought of caressing your palm with my thumb Discreetly lean to catch a glance of a unattainable affection Further behind my eyes, I fall into misdirections Passing through this dark hallway I find myself falling for an apparition Of a light Of misinterpreted promises Found it's way to my heart Even with you missing in my future Your life will still give me warmth Stumbling down the stairs With the rough taste of concrete All the romance led to my defeat Passing the torch to the next broken soul The bittersweet ache in my chest is no longer valuable Your dimming love on my heart will forever be my staple
