something about you is so familiar
no matter how long we drift apart
I can't help but love you when you're near
maybe how you were the first
the first person to stick to look into my heart
I'm familiar with the pain that comes from smiling for too long;
The repetitive aches have made my facial muscles strong.
I'm familiar with the pain that comes from crying for so long;
I have this weird obsession with the cold.
Perhaps I’m simply
Fascinated
With familiarity,
But it knows just the right ways to freeze to the bone
Leaving the numbness of my heart
