20something
this is for every conversation where I hesitated
and each instant I second-guessed myself
for all the moments that should have been
and every "what if" that I've over-thought
I've lost so many opportunities
from choosing to say nothing one too many times,
and what I meant hid behind closed lips
so instead my silence spoke too loud
but hopefully you're listening now
and these unspoken truths will finally be heard
so this language between us of misunderstandings
might finally be able to be put into words

scar
People crumble
People break
People cry
People ache
People live
People die
People hate
People lie
People smile
People smart
People hurt
Inside their heart
People love
People give
But do such people
Really live?

the baby next door and i sob in unison;
he because he has felt such love in his small world
and he wants it with him
all the time;
and i because my world is bigger,
and i know that there is too much world,
and too little love.

Why do I keep trying
when I don't even know
if your ears are open to me?

people are like waves; they come and go.
sometimes, they bring a lot of beautiful things with them as they drown you into their own sea.
but usually, they steal your soul and leave you empty.
Imagine what a wave does.
I still remember
The day we've met
On the first day of summer

I still remember
How your eyes shimmer
Whenever yours met mine

I still remember
The feelings I've felt
When we started talking

I still remember
The moment when I am walking alone
And you walked with me and everything feels so right

I still remember
The warmth of your love
That makes me sweat whenever you're around

I still remember
How I cried
On the last night of summer

I still remember
The day we'd met again
How you smiled at me while holding her hand

I still remember
The joy I've felt when I first saw you
And the pain I've felt when I last saw you

I still remember
Every details of it

I still remember...
I still...
**And I wish I'd forget
For my summer love. It hurts me thinking how our love story ends like how summer has ended.
