What We Used to Be

Misunderstandings untangled kill like bandits:

You might stay silent until you know it’s too late.

Puzzles unsolved raze like speckled grenades:

In time they’ll become the reason for distance forever.

Sometimes I break down, I fall apart.

I think I miss you but I’m locked with no choice.

Sometimes I fall asleep wondering where did I fell short?

And wake up limp with your absence beside me.

I believed in destiny like how I trusted love,

 (Felt safe merely by the stares of your eyes)

But then now I just feel imperfect; unworthy.

I must have missed the boat that just sailed away.

I never promised to give you the stars and the skies,

Yet I did swear to live beneath them with you forever.

That’s why it’s hard for me seeing us changing,

But the worst is remembering how happy we used to be.
