How can so much nothing leave me dying to crawl To the foot of your bed, I should be with you—instead, I walk away, stumbling, waiting, always waiting to fall. When you look in my eyes, can you see I’m not there, Just skin over bones and this flesh that I bear, And there’s no room for you, and you know I can never Get out of myself, get over myself, For even one moment, much less for forever. They all take their shares and they all think they see This stranger inside who pretends to be me. They’re a roomful of mirrors in this funhouse of fame, I shrink and I grow, I am wild, I am tame, But when I stand before you, I can pause, I can heal, Because you make me matter—you make me real. Every day they took away A piece of me all torn and frayed— What I couldn’t keep, I sold for cheap, So now what’s left for you and me? How can so much love feel like nothing at all? How can so much nothing leave me dying to crawl To the foot of your bed, I should be with you—instead, I walk away, stumbling, waiting, always waiting to fall. So I close my eyes, fill my hands with your hair, It’s your skin and your bones and your flesh that I bear, If I could be part of you, if we could come together I could find myself, I could lose myself, Just for one moment, or maybe forever. They always say that nothing lasts forever Well, can this nothing last forever Now? When you look in my eyes, and this time I’m there, More than skin over bones and this flesh that we bare, When I’m getting worse, when you make me better, We’ll find ourselves, we’ll lose ourselves, We’ll take this one moment…and make it forever.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jeri Smith-Ready" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/jeri-smith-ready/forever-by-logan-keeley-october-18-20xx-lying-beside-me-in-the/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/53c/jeri-smith-ready-3642_anger-inside_forever-by-logan-keeley-october-18-20xx_250958.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/53c/jeri-smith-ready-3642_anger-inside_forever-by-logan-keeley-october-18-20xx_250958.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/53c/jeri-smith-ready-3642_anger-inside_forever-by-logan-keeley-october-18-20xx_250958.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Forever” by Logan Keeley October 18, 20xx Lying beside me in the failure of flesh, You wait for the words…” — Jeri Smith-Ready", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/moment-forever/jeri-smith-ready/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/moment-forever/jeri-smith-ready/", "name": "Moment Forever Quotes by Jeri Smith-Ready", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/moment-forever/jeri-smith-ready/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/53c/jeri-smith-ready-3642_anger-inside_forever-by-logan-keeley-october-18-20xx_250958.jpg" }, "description": "1 Moment Forever quotes by Jeri Smith-Ready.
