The Sky Doesn't Pressure Me

Darkened Sunsets

You'd howl to the sky, the empty space,

The painted walls and hardwood floor places,

About how you'd wish you'd be erased 

You were darkened sunsets

and I was a field of daises

I couldn't survive without your praises

I dreamt one day the darkness would fade away

and the sunset would transport its rays

That day never came

All I could see were the specs of blue seeping through

Bits of warmth and held-back smiles too

Twisted as it was, I liked it that way

I liked you never satisfying me 

It reminded me of Romeo and Juliet

So close to love

but never quite enough
