If love is an ocean
then you are the waves
and I am drowning

I kissed a girl
and her lips tasted like a July summer
but we all know summer fades into fall
and as the leaves fall apart and die
we will too

It was too hard to tell you I missed you
so I carved each letter into my skin
and hoped you'd pull up my sleeve
but you never did

A gentle touch
"My hands are cold"
Sat in the car, secrets told
One quick text
A ride home in the rain
She taught me how to smile again
A lovely message
A warm smile
I probably could stay a while
Coffee date
I'm going to be late
"I'll pick you up, it's on my way"
A kind word
A second or two
"However can I repay you"
A humble thanks for a compliment given
I never knew someone could be so driven
Positivity being something good and pure
Your future is bright, of this I am sure

A purple dress
pretty rhinestones
mothers taking photos on their phones
hugs and kisses
compliments astray
this was meant to be my perfect day
you stepped into view
my heart skipped a beat
I suddenly feel heavy on my feet
the smile you show to the waiting crowd
gets them going, they're getting loud
you seek me out
I'm stuck in a cluster
desperately trying hard to muster
the courage I need to
be honest with you
you look beautiful

Tick tock goes the clock
another day passed
Tick tock goes the clock
this love will never last

She had bony legs and protruding hips
A hushing whisper on her lips
Those words that, long forgotten or even told
explain that bulimia had her in a choke hold.

I was never a morning person
that was until
I woke up and turned to see your face
sleep still etched into the skin beneath your eyes
the knots of your hair from endless hours of tossing and turning
and the look in your eyes that told me something valuable
the look that told me you were happy I was here
just as I was happy that you were too

I see you now
the way you're holding yourself together
almost like
if you don't hold tight enough
pieces of you will fall before my very eyes
memories and thoughts
spilling from every crevice
every tear you've ever cried
washing away your pride and resolve

I shouted I love you's and I miss you's into your heart
as loud as you'd shouted the expletives and insults into mine
You could have knocked me off the earth and I'd have still come back for you
Who knew I'd keep falling this time
I was just hoping that maybe
if I shouted inside you loud enough
eventually that bottle of ***** that you hide under your bed
would start to taste like me
