Time passes me by
all I see is black and white
colors elude me.

The bags of his eyes begin to fill
begin to weigh down his entire being.
He shudders, lips trembling
as the dam breaks and the tears fall.
He screams but nobody hears
his pain, his agony.
His body lies useless
as an emotional barrage
begins ripping him apart.
What could he have done
to help if anything?
His body trembles as sleep
takes him away
to the only place
he'll see her again.

I want you to know
that the pain you are feeling
is only temporary
that the heartache you're
experiencing
will soon be gone.
I want you to know
that you are all loved
and even though
you hurt today
you will thrive tomorrow.
I want you to know
that you are all beautiful
on the inside and outside
and are perfect just how you are.
I want you to know
that you are all
wonderful people.

He laces his shoes
steps onto the court
a fire burns bright
in his eyes.
He flashes a grin
as shot
after shot
goes right through.
You try to contain him
but you know
you can not
because he is Kevin Durant
he is unstoppable.

I know you're out there somewhere
and someday we'll find each other
in this endless world
full of endless faces
we will find one another
and both of us will experience
what it is like to find
the true puzzle piece
that completes our heart.
We have both experienced heartache
and we have both experienced love
but neither of us have truly felt
the fullest extent of human passion
that we will discover
when we find one another.

I still love her
though I do not know why
our time together was
short lived
but made me feel
so alive
I lie awake hoping
that I can find love again
that the passion returns
and a new romance
begins.
