And then in an instant
I’m saying things and question them
Why did I say that?
Why did I laugh like that?
I feel like I’m insane
You made me insane
That’s why it’s crazy in love
I feel so insane
To try and ask so much of someone
To love
When they don’t feel the same,
You don’t love me back
And it drives me insane
Maybe I’m overreacting to loss
Maybe it all becomes clear when I’m in the cloud
Everything is going a million miles an hour
I just can’t catch up
Can’t even follow myself
I can’t slow down
It’s hard to breathe
And it feels all so fast that I’m just going to seize
But it never comes
It never happens
I just get stuck here
But eventually
It slows down… I calm… it passes
It’s all so terrifying.
And I just want to cry it out, to scream it away
But it happened, and it’ll happen again.
