I wish we had stayed in touch
I wish we still talked,
Even as friends
I want to know how your day went
I want your advice on so many issues
You always gave good advice
I want to have someone who supports me
No matter what
Like you once did
I wish you still noticed me

i'm in love with a girl
with short, floppy blonde hair,
long, slender limbs,
shining, happy eyes,
and the most genuine smile ever
i'm in love with a girl
who makes everyone feel welcome,
who isn't afraid to speak her mind,
who fights for what she believes in,
who respects all opinions regardless
i'm in love with a girl
who is a geek in all respects,
who binge-watches grey's anatomy like crazy,
who plays pokemon every chance she gets
i'm in love with a girl
who already has a girlfriend
and that's the worst part.

and i suppose,
that's what pride is all about

why do i do this to myself
time and time again
why do i expect to have a fairytale love story
when the truth is i can't fall in love
and make the same person fall for me
to save my ******* life

the time has come
for tough decisions
the time has come
in which i must decide
between passion and practicality
and guys, they're both giving me fantastic arguments

people are always trying to tell me what love is
they say love is commitment
in the way a person is willing to share their entire life with you
they say love is passion
in the way a person acts so intensely and spontaneously
they say love is destiny
in the way two people are simply meant to be
yet,
i am astonished as to how people
can define love in so little words
**** brevity
love deserves a never-ending flourish of beauty
love deserves a waterfall of
arresting, lengthy, one-million-dollar words
i feel love in the way
the stars twinkle
and comets zoom
as he holds my hand and lays on his back
i feel love in the way
the ocean crashes
and the sun soaks into my skin
on a particularly wonderful beach day
i feel love in the way
my best friend cares for me
how she brings me cookie dough
at the best and worst times
i feel love in the way
he talks to me,
in the way he messes with me,
teases me,
indulges me
i feel love in the way
his crystal blue eyes
shine with joy and pride
when i save a ball
or ace an interview
i feel love in all the people around me
i feel love through my friends, family, and peers
i feel loved
and that feeling cannot be defined by one single word or even a sentence.

now that i'm thinking about it,
i can't help but share with you all
how hopelessly in love i am
with the english language

i have to try to write
shorter and shorter pieces
one word,
maybe two,
no more than three
short, sweet,
and to the point
they tell me i gotta work on brevity
yet i am too much in love
with the fluff and feel
of words on my tongue
i just can't stop

whenever i'm sad,
poetry always brings me up
yet, reading your poetry
never fails to shoot me down

the problem is that i only felt like myself when i was with you
a tricky subject considering
you're dead and gone
and my true self has been burned along with your broken body
