I am looking

at the stars tonight

thinking about you

        How you used to tell me

about these stars on the sky

        how

        they were a map

        full of souls

souls that had died

    before they lived

        and

        I can't help but wonder

        if I am going to be

        one of them

I don't want to think that

        That I died for nothing

        but maybe I could

        die to shine

Cause people always

has so much to say

when you are

no longer

         there


        - I want to hear those words -

- I wanna feel loved again -

        - I screwed it up when I let you go -

- I pushed you away to let you live -

        - I couldn't keep having you in a cage -


           "but only god knows

        how much I miss you"


        and maybe

        that is love

        letting go of

        people you need

        cause you know

        it is for their best

        even though

        it might not be

        for your best


"sometimes you just have to unravel pain

to see someone else that you love smile"


        but why can't I see it on your smile?

was it a mistake to let you go?

        wasn't that what you needed?
