Circle

I made a list of reasons

Millions of reasons

To stay away from your fire

I fought hard to learn

That millions of reasons

///

Circle

///

My attempt fell hard

When we were in the same room

One lock of eyes

And that millions of reasons backfired

All backfired

The moment my heart

Made a new million of reasons

To taste your flame

///

Shut down the memory lane

Burnt the bridges

Pickled my heart in tears

Done all these

Hoping for a miracle amnesia

///

Circle

///

Everything in my life is funny

Truly funny

Our picnic park

Our cheeky codes

Our firsts

These big things

Been forced behind

But brown eyes

Familiar laughter

Classic endearments

These small things

Been resurfacing

Fogging up my plan

Big things, small things

They team up

Pulling me back down the old road

///

Circle

///

Told you not to look back

A heartbreak shall stay

As just a heartbreak

Don’t you complicate everything

By saying you’re doing it for me

Do not

Leave any piece of you in my life

Not a piece

Even if you’re doing it for me

Do not

Let me know

‘cause heartbreak is the only thing strong enough

To keep me from your fire

I don’t want to look back

And I don’t want you to.

///

Stay where you are

I’ll do the work

Put the distance between us

Don’t you reach out

No, don’t you do that

Break the string

Don’t you try to fix it

No, don’t you do that

///

Circle

///

Told me there’s still love in all these

You’ve been and will be

Doing what you do

For love

///

Circle

///

Told you I might believe this

For the last time

I will do what matters

To destroy your reasons behind

Maybe we can make it work

Again

For the one last time

///

Circle

///

You said no

///

I do what I’ve been doing

I told you

No turning back after this

No second chances

///

Heartbreak is good

It makes me hate you

And forgetting is easier

///

Circle

///

It all came back

On a random street in a random country

“How you doing?”

The words came easy for you

I crack

Then shatter

When the words I fear

Come out from you again

“I’ve never stopped missing you.”

///

Circle

///

“I think I’ve been missing you, too.”

///

“I love you.”

///

“Don’t.”

///

Circle

///

“I’m doing it for us.”

///

Circle

///

“Can we talk?”

///

Circle

///

“About what?”

///

Circle

///

“I want us to work out.”
