Dipping Our Heads to the Ground

Dipping Our Heads to the Ground

A Poem by EVERYTHINGyoucantelltoSTRANGERS

Dip your head

A little further

To their ground

Well make it through

The fight

Never

Thinking

We’d ever

Get this far

We got this far

Wasting these nights

Holding onto you

Forever

Look where it got me

Now wont you

Now

Cause

This is where my heart

Is cold

It’s torn

Maybe someone will be waiting

For me

But ill already be

Gone

Can you see me now?

Follow me into

The dark

I can’t make it

There alone

It’s too long

A time

Without having

You there

Ill never feel that

Way

With you

Ten million miles

Out of my sight

Never

Out of my mind

Cause everything

Means something to

What we used to

Be

When the tears find me

Again

Ill let you

Know

That you’re never gonna

Be forgotten

But I promise you

I tried

Really

Really

Hard

But you’ve etched yourself

On my memory

Sweetheart

What have you done to me?

Just give

Me one more chance

To make it out alive

Cause my chances aren’t really

All that good

That gaze

Kills everyone

With that intensity

That sweet simplicity

Mimicking innocence

Almost like you could

Still pull that off

But we know that its

Impossible

For you

To know

What you do

To us

‘Cause no one has the nerve

To tell you

What you mean

To everyone

Who’s ever talked to you?

Who’s ever seen you?

Almost

Whoever has seen you?

At your worst

Are the only ones who

Will see you at

Your best

Because you still mean

Everything

And I wish your voice

Said my name

So I could turn

And face you

Just drown out

The rest of the world

For right now

Whatever happened

To us

What did we do

To deserve this fate

That I brought on you

But Ill never say

I’m sorry

Cause ill never mean

It again

Cause the only time

I was ever sorry

Was the time

I didn’t chase

You

And the butterflies

Still won’t go away

They never really left

They’re just my

Lingering mementos

Of what

I made up that

We had

And I wish

That everything I said

Meant anything in the

End

But we know

That we will not

Forget

What never happened

But at least I know

That I cant let go

Of what I never

Really had

Forgive me

For stretching

Out my hands
