Note 247:

Vic
It might not be the right thing to do,
But it's the thing I wanna do.
And even though it would be better for me,
I can't live knowing I had this option too.
A poem every day.

Me
I lost myself
Living in a prison of your creation
But when I found me
I found beauty and zest

He loved her.

He didn’t love her for her body.

He loved her for the way she belted out the wrong lyrics while blasting music driving down the highway.

He loved her for the way her eyes brightened like stars on a cloudless night when she saw him.

He loved her for the way she twirled around in her pretty blue dress, barefoot on the soft grass.

He loved her for the way she fumbled over the piano keys, creating a barely recognizable melody.

He loved her for the way she woke up on an early morning, all grumpy and confused, wrapped up tight in a blanket.

He loved her for the way she splashes around in the ocean, kicking the water at him and motioning for him to join her.

He loved her for the way she loved him.

He didn’t love her for her body.

He loved her for her careless, sloppy soul.

I have watched you die
    A thousand times.
Like a **** movie 'ever
    Playing in my mind.

I have said goodbye to you
A thousand times.
Yet still can not accept
You are gone.

I have cried and apologized
A thousand times.
Though I still don't quite
Understand why.
