SONDER

SONDER

~Some nights I'm afraid of going to sleep

~I'm scared I'll see you again

~The last time I saw you I couldn't even touch you

~but my chest was still reaching out to you

~I hate that my body and mind think apart

~Today the coffee place was louder

~I walked away with my hands being lighter

~I've had more time to think now that my odysseys are longer

~Your memories dance on their own like a stranger so sonder

~I don't know you

~everything we had was superficial

~I don't love you

~My heart cannot tell fear and thrill apart

~I don't miss you

~I only drive past your street to make sure you don't follow me home

~I don't feel you

~My face went numb from the tears you didn't see

~I don't hate you

~Because now my hand is free
