Sometimes I imagine you leaving,
Those final, dreaded words
"I don't want you anymore."
And you'd toss me away like the trash I really am
The trash you deny to see in me
I imagine it'd be like hell
It'd be like those breakup songs,
Except lasting forever
It'd be like drowning, burning, but never dying
I'll be a victim of the infinite aftermath
Walking dead, hungry for love but never fed
And you'll just walk away,
And forget I ever existed
Would our parting maim you too?
Would you cry even a tear for me?
Would you feel the same aching?
I imagine you won't, you're too good for that
Me, however,
I'd be a wreck
In a worse condition than the one you found me in
Because you loved me first and fixed me
A million sunsets will never give me the same joy
A billion stars will never soothe my pain
A trillion naps will never make me less tired
A quadrillion lovers will never heal the wound you'd leave
I can't imagine a happy ending to it
Not without you
But the threat of you leaving stays
Like a blade hovering over my neck
It's more than just an intrusive thought
It's a reoccurring nightmare
A horror movie on repeat
I dread the day it becomes a prophecy fulfilled
