Five Minute Slips
That sinking feeling when you can feel your lover withdrawing from you and you already know what's coming, so you just have to wait.

I'll take a piece and breathe in
my memories of you
I'll scorch my throat and blow out of my mouth something new
This ache stings in an unfamiliar way
The smoke’ll take to the sky, spelling out “take this pain away”
I know my judgement’s lacking, but
so is my heart
I couldn’t be bothered to tell heaven and hell apart
And maybe i’ll slip back into habits of worse days
Shame, I thought i’d grown
But maybe it’s better this way
And the exhaustion drags at your weary eyes
That lose their sight with time
Cause you should probably give up When you don’t want to see anything anymore
Since all it reminds you of is the things you failed before
And the planks for your bridges break
And you land in the hands of fate
You think you’re saved, but they’ve got other plans
Even with glasses I struggle to see
Wherher or not you’re really slipping away from me
As the most joyous things fade to monochrome in my hands
When you say those foggy words that neither of us understand
Bitter tea to bite my tongue,
And bitter air to bite my lungs
Bittee thoughts to bite my brain
