All of my quotes are "depressing", so I won't share them to you with a request. *wonk wonk*

When I look into your eyes
You're not there
And it's not fair
To be left alone

When I look into your eyes
Your irises are gray
And so far away
And I'm left alone

When I look into your eyes
I find no hatred, no depises
I find no truth, no lies
And I'm left alone


You feel no pain
It's all the same
Whether we are together or apart
To your stone heart

The Happy stole you
And now the Happy holds yoy


When I look into your eyes
You're not there
And it's not fair
To be left alone
To feel so cold

I wrote this when I found out that my boyfriend had gotten into meth. A week later he was a mess and an addict. I broke up with him and only allow myself to look back when I write.
