Out Of Me

I’m standing on the edge of this cliff, screaming your name, and releasing all of these emotions just so I can move on.

I’m running and running until my legs give out and even with nothing left in me, I crawl to my feet and keep running.

I have to rip out every page in every notebook your name is mentioned in and burn them to ashes because I’m still writing about your love like it’s mine to have.

I have to take my heart and squeeze you out because if I don’t I will drown in the acid you left behind and as it burns I will still ache for your touch like its the only salve that can save me.

I need to get you out of me because I'm afraid if I don't, I'll be left holding nothing but broken memories.
