"Why do you write?" he asked. / So I can take my love for you and give it to the world, I reply. / Because you wont take it from me. / / -Lang Leav
some say that pain is inevitable when it comes to love that you're bound to get hurt one way or the other that you're no match for the force of human nature, that is to hurt the ones you love i say—let it. let it scar. let it hurt. —and let it hurt badly. leave me broken and leave me crying leave me lonely and leave me dying because if love means waiting years and years just to spend one fraction of a moment where we belong to each other then all of the wait and all the weight on our shoulders would be worth everything we've been trying so hard to resist.

please tell him
im sorry i saw venus in your galaxy eyes when it was nothing but dim im sorry it felt electric whenever our skins grazed against each other when you were just cold im sorry it felt nervous looking into your devil smile when you were just ecstatic im sorry it felt like home evrytime you said my name when you were just lonely im sorry it took so long to forget your face when you never even bothered to remember my name but most of all, im sorry i put all these metaphors to your ordinary features when all you gave me was 3 years of agony and a lifetime's worth of absence

im not much of a poet, but his eyes look like comets rushing to fall onto me, being engulfed by earth's pull im not much of a poet, but i swear his skin feels like the first drop of water on a hot summer shower im not much of a poet, but his smile spreads across my skyline like sunshine on an early morning jog im not much of a poet, and he's not much of my poetry.

not much
He's not really good with words, but every sentence spills out of his lips like a ballad waiting to be sung. He's not really good with words, but for every 10 apologies, he gives out a million i love you's to make up for it. He's not really good with words but every letter that slops out of his ink sounds like the playing sonnets of Beethoven. He's not really good with words but his touch feels like warm coffee on a drizzling sunday afternoon. He's not really good with words, but if actions could speak, every space in his entire being would scream out her name.
