Coming back to you

Is like coming to an abandoned church

Sacred, yet terrifying

You never know what awaits

Is it heaven, is it hell?

Both welcoming

And frightening,

Both silent

And violent.


Hope always remains,

But I know that

You have been hurt

And you will hurt,

That's a promise.


Coming back to you

Is like coming to an old friend

Long expected, yet unpleasant

You never know what awaits

Is it joy, is it pain?

Both crying

And giggling,

Both calm

And violent.


Hope always remains,

But we know that

I have been shattered

And I will shatter,

That's a promise.


Giving up and giving in,

Drowning in a drought of emotions.

Giving up and giving in,

Running back to the past.


Hope always remains,

But you know that

We have been broken

And we will break,

That's a promise.
