Without your hand in mine,
I feel loneliness seep in.

Unruly curls
Bright laughs
Too cold kisses
Ice cream stains
Secret smiles
Moonlit eyelashes
Lingering lips
Soaring hearts

I'm so sorry I can't give my whole self to you. Over time, bits and pieces have been broken off and never returned. I can't give you everything that I want to give. I want to give you my heart, my everything. You deserve so much love. You deserve all of my love. I'll spend the rest of our time together apologizing for reasons you won't know about. Let me. I will write apologies on your lips with mine, on your shoulders with my fingertips, on your heart with my fragile one. There are so many walls, B. I put them up in a matter of days. It wasn't hard, their shadows still showed in the grass. Every time you say you love me, a brick falls. They crash at your feet. Don't let them fall on your toes. Just move them to the side, make a pile and cover them with tarp. I don't want to see them. I don't want to be reminded anymore. All I want is memories with you. Maybe that's why I take so many photos of your smile or screenshots of your texts. I want to remember every single thing. You've given me some of the best memories I've ever had the privilege to remember. You.
I love you. I love you. I love you.

You make me feel beautiful in anything -- a tshirt and Nikes, a red dress, nothing at all.

I'm trying so hard to be everything you need

Don't say that you're in love with me
I can't handle that just yet
I know that you're tired  
You only say it in your exhaustion
But don't mean it
Please don't mean it
I'm cruel and I hurt and I sting
So don't say you're in love with me
Because when morning comes
You won't be

Fingertips have memories
Mine can't forget you
The curve of your spine
The freckles across your nose
The veins that run along your arms
The firm muscles of your legs
The strength behind your hands
The love inside your soul

Behind your eyes, shooting stars
I would make a wish, but what I would wish for is already in my arms

I spent hours in your arms
and realized that there was no place
I would rather be

I burn for you and you alone;
Your love lights a flame
that will not dim
nor extinguish.

You sound like rain in the summertime
