your forehead against mine
the delicious chocolate color of your eyes,
intensely looking into mine.
my palms are sweaty
they move to your waist.
your arms around my neck,
they pull me closer.
your hot breath spills onto my lips making me shiver.
i swallow my nerves.
time seems to pass so slow
you lean in and press your lips to mine
your lips soft and plump
my heart is racing
it all comes crashing down again when you pull away,
almost as if you’ve ****** the life out of me and i cannot catch my breath.
you giggled and ran off into his arms,
down another glass of whatever intoxicated you.
that was the first time I tasted your lips
as soon as I experienced it, I never did again.
your love for me stopped where anyone else was around,
my love for you lives on everywhere we’ve been.

sitting here in the quiet
thinking about you,
and what we could be,
in some alternative universe where you care as much as i do.
my phone bleeps and it's your name on the screen,
i get excited and fumble with the passcode.
with hopeful eyes i read your messages but begin to frown.
you've worded every hope and dream in our alternative universe
the only difference is it's a reality for you and him.
i smile through the sting of my tears,
i trick myself every time
into thinking some day you'll talk about me like that.

By The River
it was quiet by the river
only her sniffles and the crashing of water was heard
it was almost as if we were the only ones on this earth
i listened as her heart cried
the vulnerability was so surreal
my arm went around her shoulders
i could feel her breaking underneath me
the sky that evening was beautiful
with its paint stroke clouds
painting a story like the one she was telling about
