Angel

stretched like the ocean
to a blank horizon
where the water reached to the sapphire sky
and i was trying to pretend i could not see that we were young and stupid
and so scared everything that we did couldn't stop the end

i wish i was convinced you were such a perfect angel

you never were fair and you took everything way too goddamned seriously
and you didn't trust me
you never let me close enough that you'd depend upon me
but that first love is hard to let go, so i'm sorry
if my honesty caused you hurt
i know such sharp words can't make us whole again

i wish i was convinced you were such a perfect angel
