If I was a talented writer Maybe someone, anyone, would understand The skip in my chest the first time you told me you loved me Maybe then I could understand why it doesn't seem so present anymore If these words came out as I wanted them Maybe I’d be lucky to see you’re brown eyes dance once more And my pillow wouldn't be stained with Freshly smeared make up due to the venom you put in my veins My breath seems flattened with you so far away My throat is raw from all the feelings I've swallowed To try and guard myself from the promotion That kept me awake at 2:53 You could never be a stranger to me I know you too well to pretend I don’t feel my stomach drop when I see you I envy the way you can put me away, and shut me out. I can’t wait forever. I’m sick and worn down of being a prisoner to my feelings… so tell me dear, is this worth it? ~g.h.
