Queens & Kings;

2 am, stars in the sky

You kissed me and I felt so high

Laying in the bed of your truck

Thought we had a bit of luck

Thought we'd go farther than we did

But in your heart, you're just a kid

I used to like losing myself in things

'Til I got lost in you and never came home

Thought we'd grow to be queens and kings

But in the end, we all end up alone

2 am, I lay in my bed with you

Damn I was ignorant, I had no clue

Your dark eyes hid what was inside

Didn't know they'd soon make me terrified

Cause I thought we would last

But "us" was already a thing of the past

I used to like losing myself in things

'Til I got lost in you and never came home

Thought we'd grow to be queens and kings

But now we've descended our throne

5 am, can't sleep with you on my mind

You were my home, now a home I can't find

Feeling lost in this sleepy place

Wishing I could erase, forget your face, your embrace

But my heart's edges are still sharp as glass

I'm wondering if this will ever pass

I used to like losing myself in things

'Til I got lost in you and never came home

Thought we'd grow to be queens and kings

But now I know that we just stand alone

I feel like I may be going through this at the moment, and you have captured it perfectly, when you look at someone and you can't see a future without them then suddenly they're slipping away and your future is fading.
Heartbreaking.
Thank you for sharing.
