the scar on the corner of your eye
you said “the pain in my heart will fade once i die”
and i’d never seen a grown man cry
but you came to me; you sat and you felt
there was silence in the moment
your suffering the equivalent to hell

and i wish i could have told you how handsome you looked
i wish i could have held you tighter, closer
like you do with your books

and i wish i could have kissed you
maybe once or twice, so you knew the
connection between two hearts that collide

and i wish i could have told you how much i love your smile
and how i wish you showed it more because it glistens;

a million and one stars on the surface of your lips

i wish i could have taken your hand
traced your fingertips with mine
told you that i’m happy you’re here
and i don’t know what i’d do if you’re gone

the scar on the corner of your eye
the pain in your heart, faded; goodbye

he told me
that black hair suited my face.
i never knew that he meant
that he wanted me to move on
to find someone closer to me.

i guess i ****** you over
with the worst intentions ever.
but
i only wanted what was best for myself.

i suppose i could've thought of you,
because i am right now,
and it's breaking down every fiber in  my body.

I'm a passenger
to a train full of remorse.

last night i couldn't stop thinking of the way your head always fit into the crook of my shoulders,
or the way your tiny hands would wrap around my warm waist.
i kept feeling your bright blue eyes burning through the back of my skull,
pleading for me to never lie to you;
never leave you.
but i did i leave you.
you had nothing to call a home anymore,
because i kept you so high up in the clouds.

all i can say
is that the way your lips curved up whenever i smiled at you
is haunting me,

and i think i need you.
