Your trembling hands
are steady for me

I need to stop.

You know, I know you miss me
and the nights we had
and the times I told you I loved you
and the nights we rambled about nothing.
Yeah, you ******* miss me.

But I can't skate by knowing
I just let you walk away,
right on by.
And I hate myself for that.
But still, things could be like old times.
I don't know what's wrong with me. But this, this is me being angsty and ******* and immature and you know what, I don't care anymore because everything came rushing in and I wasn't ready. I've cried every night since that first message because I'm still so heart broken and pathetic. But I can't be mad at you. It's just impossible.

I kind of miss way back
when you and I were
just us and everyday,
everyday was only ours.

You stood out like
every mishap does
and I could never regret you.
(Just open your eyes.)

We took to the streets --
the spotty-lit streets and drizzle-covered sidewalks
without worries and doubts
living the night on high.

Because you were the ones I wanted in my life
always and forever, through thick and thin
and hours of wine drinking until our laughs grew hoarse.
That's all I could ever want, and that's all I'll ever need.
I wrote this drunk last night but my friends enjoyed it so I'm posting it. I love my best friends Kaitlyn and Alexis. They know everything about me, top to bottom and inside and out. They know about my problems and accept me for who I am and they always listen. And I just wanted to show how much last night meant to me and I hope they feel the same way.

I'll stand here alone
with my thoughts and the shoreline
just waiting to hear your voice.
Not about anyone in particular. Just felt like writing this.

Love can no longer be my muse because how can you use such a foreign thing to write such meaningful words?
I need to find a new focus, maybe take a step back and check myself.
