In The Worst Of Times

Today was our Anniversary
And I did something terrible – exposed the weakness
In you, which exposed the weakness in me

It is cold outside
As it usually is
But this is not love poem
So this time
It really is cold, and dark

I sit here in my basement
And think about you
Knowing that one day
You will die
And I will too

When I cry for you
Tonight won’t matter anymore
It will be just a another mistake
That we learned from
When I cry for you
Press my nails deep into my palm
This night will not compare

There is something to be said about love
It doesn’t give a shit
Persisting in the worst of times
Like tonight, or so we think
