I should call my mind yours
because you’re always in it

you are not just a thought
that eventually wanders in my brain

you are my silence
and you are my noises

it’s 2 am and I’m trying to sleep
but all I have is you
all the memories that you carefully inked
into my mind

I miss you
but I miss your voice even more
I miss how your vocal cords
beautifully pronounced my name

I need to see you
in the light that the moon radiated you with
on that October night

you are one person
but you are the only one
that made me feel everything
and perhaps for people it was nothing
but for us
it was love

late at night you can hear them clear
the voices in me
saying that you need to fear.

clean up the mess
they said
and you need to hurry.

you have a knife in your hand
and you hide it rapidly
you didn't want them to worry.

you're writing your story
this is only the first page
don't let them win
we all want you to stay safe.

what have you done darling?
you're hurting yourself.
