Page 60 of Every Breath After (Lost Boys Book 3): Part I

I’m sorry. I’m so fucking sorry.

If I could, I’d take the tears from your eyes kiss the tears from your eyes

If anyone could wash away these lies I cling

and cleanse me of these lies masquerading as truths

I never meant to make you cry

Tell me, tell me where I go from here

How do I apologize

How do I make you believe the sober truth about drunken lies

How do I turn sorrys into never agains, when I can’t be certain I won’t keep fucking up in the end?

Oh, how I wish you could invade my mind

Crawl under my skin

Feel my heart beat in the cradle of your hands

You’d have to know I’d let you, I’d do just about anything for you

See me, please see me

Find me, and show me the way out

This maze has no left side

The stars are hidden from me

Jeremy, please forgive me

I can’t do this without you
