She is situated by the window with her eyes fixed on the empty night
"When did this happen?"
"You're asking the wrong question."
She inhaled all the despaired air, and it becomes her.
"Shut your eyes. What do you see?"
"Darkness."
He does not recognise her, and neither does she.
"Is this who you are now?"
"Maybe."

for once in my life, I don't want to write about you.
and even then,
I am still writing about you.

more damage is done
with every drag
say those words
you can never take back
fill your lungs
then suffer an asthma attack
smoke what you started
then raise your white flag

a fimiliar ray of warm sunlight settles on your face
it doesn't really matter where we are anymore
you feel like home,
and a love that will last
for the rest of my days
sudden anger and pride
cause us to give each other too much space.
don't you realise,
distance was one of our biggest mistakes?
the best is yet to come, but nothing good's come yet -
i wait for better,
until after the sun sets and the clock breaks.
dream state is now where we meet -
with unclear beginnings and endings
of what we speak.
illusions are uncontrollably building up in my mind.
god knows,
i'm just trying to put the past behind.
encounters have become ever so brief,
you forgot your home and
i forgot how to breathe

three days of
sunshine,
teasing,
and grins
stretched from ear to ear
then five days of
glaring,
thunderstorms,
rain,
and tears.

I'm shaking and
I don't want you to make me feel better
I don't want you to hug me
It snows and
you don't want me to keep things from you
you don't want me to be scared
We walk and
I don't want you to think I'm a child
I don't want you to be burdened by me
It's late and
you don't want me to leave
you don't want me to be with someone else
I'm home and
I don't want to fall
you don't want me at all

I deeply inhaled
every tobacco filled air
you ever exhaled.
How twisted is it
that I'm attached to a stench
that's suffocating?
Nicotine doesn't seem
so addicting and harmful
when compared to you.

You're in a hallway with endless doors,
some are open, some are closed.
They look inviting but
you'd rather find the one that pulls you with force.
you come across my room,
and you wait there patiently like it's yours.
"You don't have a key," I said
but he ignores.
You sat out there and waited so long
I started to wonder why you did that,
and if we would get along.
I talked and whispered, through the door
I didn't open it yet, incase something went wrong.
On the days I was upset, you'd slip notes
to tell me you believed that I was strong.
Slowly, our friendship began but
still the door was shut, and I sang my song.
Two years passed before you asked if you could come in
I gave it some thought
then nodded, with a grin.
You told me that you only stuck through
because you knew you could win -
but it wasn't true, you cared so much
that I was under your skin.
Then you wondered, interrogating me,
"Do you feel the same within?"
Maybe you were still unwelcome, I wasn't sure,
you couldn't take it and your patience started to run thin.
It wasn't all my fault, but I'll share the blame.
I miss you, sometimes
even if you think time's changed
and we're not the same.
Do you remember the time I got mad when I overslept
because we stayed up to watch the game?
The time you gave in to my music,
after insisting it was lame.
The memory I'm most fond of is the one when
you offered me your last name.
I wonder if you still walk in that hallway,
and if now, you walk around without an aim.

You are like lightning,
electrifying and charged,
shocking when you strike.
Despite being so
evidently natural,
you're aware you're rare.
You will be gone quick
and it'll rain harder after,
you are that powerful.
For the reason that,
you brighten up my dark sky -
the trouble's worth it.

you've destroyed
a lifetime friendship
you've destroyed
an unborn friendship
and as much as I want to
destroy you;
I'm not the one with jealous bones in my body
