"it might not be a lot but i feel like im making the most" ~ lots of love & lots of sad
something i've been urgently needing for years. i know you told me you wouldn't talk me if i did this. through the millions of thoughts racing through my head, you were the only thought i could focus on. i want to apologize but i know i'll never be forgiven. so i hold all this up so i don't let you down. i keep it in so you don't go out.

an instant solution
i see you went to new york, the place with a million lights. my favorite place in the world, you were once my favorite girl. i wonder if you thought of me, while driving up there during christmas time. i told you i wished to see the lights. i wonder if you took the time. and you got into university, a tough one at that. your passion for learning goes to show. i'm proud of you, you know. i wish i was like that. i wish i was smart. i wish i was strong. and i know you struggle with perfectionism. but you look at you now. i hope you find your favorite place in the world. you were once my favorite girl.

we haven't talked in a while
As for her, She might has forgotten where the home is in the world For she's always everywhere— in every countries she crossed on every streets she wandered at every motels she spent the night above the sand and ocean breeze below the tallest buildings and crowded bridges.. But you, You make her feel like the closest thing to feeling that again

The Lost Wanderer
you've held my hand, you hold my heart, but we are strangers now, i suppose we have been from the start. we haven't talked in what seems like years, your love will always brings me to tears, falling together just to fall apart, i suppose we have been from the start.

strangers
ever since you left, the world has been dimmed down. the grass isn't as green, the sun isn't as bright. it's hard to find a light source when the light of your life has gone out.

light
i would move the strongest buildings, or give you mountains from afar, i'd give you everything you want, or even catch you every star. i would count every single grain of sand, or grant you every piece of land, or if you wanted me to simply just walk away from it all, i would, if it meant you would stay for just one more day.

stay
we ran. at exceedingly high speeds, away from our troubles, far from our plans, hand in hand, we ran. towards the sunset. received a call from the light remaining, it gladly welcomed us home. so we ran. up all the stairs, mucked rails beneath our hands, opened every door, and so we ran. we reached the top, sprint to the edge. looked to the sky, and the sun was turned off. and the stars said hello, as our eyes swallowed them whole. this beautiful sight, that visits every night, our favorite show, that'll guide our walk home.

night sky
I was on my way to the town over. Warm sunshine flooded in through every window, palm trees were lined up in their correct order, and the bluest California sky imaginable was right above me. At every stop, I heard the cars pass by me. They remind me of you leaving. I can still recall each individual crack my heart had that day. How much it broke, and at exactly what times. I can still recall the song playing on the radio, I listen to it all the time. It brings me back to our last day. When I still had you, even though I lost you. I hope my heart can forgive me for the cruel despair I've caused. No other feeling can compare to how it felt when you left. Nothing has been right ever since.

losing you
it's a long, strange road that links present me and past me together. if i had to describe autumn in one word, it would be painful. lovely, yet painful memories that i miss the most are the same ones i push farthest away from me. so i always tell myself i wont get thrown off by autumn this year, but i always end up basking in all its nostalgic glory.

memories
it was the last moments in time before you ignored me for a week straight. the last moments in time before anxious hours arose of me waiting for your call to light up my phone, just so i could ignore it. the last moments in time before i finally decided to give up trying to fix something that was completely and unapologetically broken. and the very last moments in time we were ever truly happy. i will remember these moments forever.
