You cracked open your ribs to murmur soft lullabies into the night just for him to sleep tight but all he fathoms is a tired sigh as the blankets ruffle, tangled up around him the night takes him away in a matter of heartbeats the silence speaks to you leaving you gasping for air as you reminisce your body moulded into his his kisses engulfing you his scent unwrapping you his touch mesmerising you but darling those nights have shattered into unspoken words leaving you behind

he left you alone
your husky voice 10,000 miles away seem so close yet so far i smile as you whisper my name the teasing and i love yous they tickle my heart we'd talk till the sun breaks until my cheeks are warm from blushing when we disconnect i drown in remorse and bliss how something so beautiful can end they told me not to built homes out of people but i found galaxies somewhere inside you.

why
through miles of wire lay a girl who lived for late night calls dreamed about their embrace and breathed him in like a daily fuel through miles somewhere stood a boy who is scarred with memories of his past but the voice of hers in the dark, it’s the only light he sees through smiles in the dark they fell deeper and deeper in each other’s heartbeats he made promises she closed her eyes and dreamed on

late night reminiscing
you said it doesn't matter anyway it never did you said it didn't matter if it was a week, a month, or a year we wouldn't be forever anyway you once said you loved me on a cold and dark night like this you said it didn't matter but baby it matters to me

it matters
No Don't say that you're my rock My prince In shining armor Defeating the mighty dragon No Don't say that I'm perfect And the monsters are normal Because they echo me No Don't say I'm not alone At 2 in the morning Staring at the ceiling With infinite thoughts No Don't say you'll always be there Because where are you When I flash my practiced smile Where are you When I desperately needed that phone call Where are you Baby Where are you

Where are you
No, it doesn't happen Through secret glances And shy smiles Nor does it happen When you gaze into ones Deep crystal eyes It doesn't happen In the midst of flashlights Or romantic background music It happens When you see deep within Ones soul Not just the window But the whole house of emotions It happens When he grows meadows of daisies Inside the ugliest parts of you It happens When he caresses your tear stained face In 2 in the morning And holds you like you're gold It happens When you're upset over him Not being there for your little fits It happens When the suitcases under your eyes Are packed With thoughts of him And only him It happens When you're too young To fully comprehend What the universe holds for you and him But what if At a tender age of fifteen You know he's the one? The one That holds the perfect fit To your broken soul It happens When you least want it to

Soulmate?//at 15
We lay on the flower beds one dark and gloomy night. With the murky sinister clouds engulfing the moon, suffocating it until the iridescent glow fades away. We lay there with our fingers intertwined conquering the world together. We lay there until the comfortable silence eventually becomes us. I flipped over and gently laid my hand on your heaving chest as your free hand automatically meets my waist. You said i looked beautiful even under the vague moonlight. I shook my head as a tear leaked out unintentionally. I wiped it away with the back of my hand in a swift movement but more tears seem to be wallowing on the corner of my tired eyes. He pulled me into a strong embrace then traces my hollow cheekbones, my broken lips, the dark circles under my eyes after each sleepless night and stopped briefly, gently pressing his soft lips against my mine while holding me, shushing me. You looked straight into my ocean eyes said those three words like it was the easiest thing ever. My lips quiver as i asked the only question i could comprehend. “You promise?” He had this tendency of flashing his grin that made me surrender every time, suffice to say, he didn't this time either. With no pinky promise, no paper with his signature inked, the promise simply came from his soft, delicate mouth. Smoothly it came out, nonchalantly in fact. Merely two words. “I promise.” Sitting on the cold, empty floor only did she realise that promises so fragile end just as the night does. Beautiful and vulnerable. Just like her.
