My imagination won tonight
I guess there's no escaping you

I pulled out the story of us
And was shocked to see how much dust it had collected
Has it really been that long?
I reread every tear-stained page
Regretfully remembering the way you taste
I felt the lingering of your kiss on my neck
Oh, my body aches to feel it again
No ones ever been quite like you
And the pain never softens
No matter how much ***** I consume
To drown the memory of you

So just know that I am still yours
Even after all this time
And you may kiss me
Whenever you'd like
The way you did before

Our beginning was beautiful as most beginnings are
We ended tragically as most soul mates do
And now we're just another broken mess of once was'
Another love story that ruined lives and yet, fell as dust among the earth

I drank too much and played too many sad songs and cried too hard
Just because I wanted you

As simple,
And complicated,
As that was

You only need your heart broken once
To be able to create a lifetime of poetry

There's one story we'll spend our entire lives trying to tell

*And you are mine

You're etched into my bones
You took up so much space
You poured out of my heart
And into my veins
Rooting yourself into every inch of my body
Greedily soaking up every ounce of goodness
Until you were satisfied

Then one day you left
And my body still sees you in every place that you were
Wishing you dive back in
And take me over

I'll be your worst sin
And you can be my taste of heaven

It's so silly to me
That I can't just call you and say that I miss you
And then call you the next night to tell you I'm over you
I hate that I can't pull you along these tidal waves of emotion that all trace back to you
Because I could call you
Read you all the poems that put into words what I cannot
Sing you the songs I cry to because nothing can drown out the silence of the space you used to fill
Keep you up all night so you know how it feels to never get sleep because you're plagued with memories and strategies to get them back
I dial your number all the time
To tell you all this because it's so ****** silly to keep it all in

But then your response?
Well the fear of what you might say stops me
Every.
Single.
Time.

How deceiving is wine
To make you seem like a good idea
How horrible soberness
To remind me you never have been

"We will always be
Maybe not again in this life
But us can never die"

I find you most often in the memories you wish I would forget

I'm tired of writing about a boy who doesn't even remember he loved me
