The only thing I'm afraid of
is forgetting about this

You just shot me in the chest.

Maybe if I close my eyes
my fingertips will feel like yours
Maybe if I lay deathly still
I can pretend you're here by me
Maybe if we stay online
we'll be in the same bed one day
Maybe if I inhale deeply
You'll be there to exhale for me.

Ignorance is the gateway that will lead us to stupidity.

Nights become bearable when
Your dream is pressed up against you
Softly her heartbeat drowns out every worry.

You used to be a lovely daffodil that blooms in May, but now you're just a withered flower in a winter day.*
