Look Back

Gravity pulls me down,
And my eyes become so dry.
Lost in accelerating love
That can't pick up speed to fly.

My heart,
It bends and breaks for you,
And it's so torn up,
So ripped to shreds.

Lips so crisp with a soul so sharp
Spit out "I'm not yours."
Heart as hard as stone
Doesn't flinch and carries on.

Yet every so many miles,
I look back to the one I love
And the pain in my chest
Becomes apparent.

Too young to know what love is,
To hold it in my hands.
Too young to know true heartache,
Yet it lingers where I stand.
