It was late at night
You held on tight
From an empty seat
A flash of light
Lena had been so distant recently. In all honesty, you had been trying your best to not let it get to you. You didnât want to be annoying or anything like that. Itâs just⌠sheâd be so- different? You couldnât help but be concerned for her. Between the excess sleep, and her barely eating. She just wasnât like herself⌠at all.
Every day, sheâd leave before you were awake and get back when you were asleep. Of course, youâd have a small voice in your head accusing her of cheating. But it didnât take a genius to figure out it wasnât cheating- she valued her work over you. It was as simple as that. And her work was making her burnout, and get more depressed than ever. Everyone knew it too.
At the beginning of your relationship, sheâd been honest about her struggles. You understood- her childhood wasnât easy and having the Luthor name attached to her made Lena a target. You loved her through all of it though- that said, you often questioned if she did the same.
It will take a while
To make you smile
Somewhere in these eyes
Iâm on your side
âLena, baby. Hi!â You said happily, rushing up from the couch. It was a very rare occurrence for her to come home so early, and you wanted to bask in the joy of it. âI missed you. Have you been feeling any better?â You ran your fingers through her hair, a soft gesture to meet her exhausted stance. You hesitated when you noticed her body language- she had to stop herself from actively pushing you away.
âWork was shitty. Iâm so tired.â She mumbled out, and you frowned when you saw tears brim her eyes. She rarely cried. When she did, you knew it had been a particularly bad day. âI just need some space right now.â
You frowned. Lena needed a lot of time alone recently, and part of you wished she would just accept your love. Alas, you understood and respected her request, âOf course baby. Iâm going to make myself something to eat, but let me know if you want anything?â Lena simply nodded and left without saying a word, and you swallowed down the urge to cry. You felt so selfish but shit⌠it hurt- fucking badly.
You wide-eyed girls
You get it right
Fall back into place
Fall back into place
The next morning was no different. She was completely distant, and couldnât even bring herself to simply reply to an easy question. You wished you could just do more. A large part of you was being eaten up by guilt- if only you could be more helpful. Maybe it was your fault she was so sad.
She left for the workday, and you drove yourself to your job. You were unable to focus the entire time, your mind racing with thoughts of Lena. You hated to admit it, but you almost wanted to yell at her to just snap out of it. Of course, it wasnât that simple. You just missed how it all used to be.
How it used to be when she loved you. She used to hold you, full of emotion. Even when she could barely function, she made sure you were never alone. She had always just been there. And it wasnât like you werenât sad either- Lena just never took notice nowadays.
Tender is the night
For a broken heart
Who will dry your eyes
When it falls apart?
You knew it was coming. That she was going to leave you- I mean, you just werenât ready for each other. Bottom line, she was different now. The new Lena canât handle you- or anyone, you think. It wasnât even personal.
You just think she doesnât have the energy to love anymore. But god, you wish she fucking did. You missed how she used to be around you- how things used to feel. When you asked, she told you how she felt- tired, alone. Depressed. You wished you could fix it- but god you just couldnât.
When she came up to you that day and told you she couldnât be with you anymore- you were heartbroken. You felt as though your heart had shattered. Even if it was for the best- you couldnât. It hurt so bad. She told you it was for the best of you, and she didnât want you to feel unloved anymore.
What makes this fragile world go âround?
Were you ever lost?
Was she ever found?
Somewhere in these eyes
You were just so tired now. Even with Lenaâs non existing love, she was still there. Not there for you, particularly- just there. That was what made it enough for you. She was there, and you saw her. Even if she hated you- you just wanted to see her.
But now, you couldnât. She moved out, even quitting her job. You wish you could have done more- logically you told yourself you did everything you could have. Still, you felt responsible for her going numb.
It was too late now though. She was gone, and she was never coming back. Sheâd given up, and maybe a small part of you thought you should too.
