i want to be
the stars in your sky
and the sun rays
that shine on
your face
and maybe even be
the air
in your lungs
and i want to
be one of the reasons
why you smile
why you wake up
and want to be more
than who you are
and i want
to be the soundtrack
to your happy days
and i want to
make you feel
things you've never
felt before
and i want to
maybe even
own a little
piece of your
heart.

the radiant glowing lightness
i used to feel
in my chest
when i thought of you
has been replaced
by the most
terrible, suffocating
weight

landscapes

When i peer out at beautiful landscapes, massive mountains, expansive oceans, spanning city silhouettes, elegant gardens

i feel my soul expanding and spreading
to take in the endless amazingness before of me

i feel this way when i look at you

it crashes into me
heavy and everywhere at once

its like a giant wave
one moment, a clean blue ocean view
the next, you're everything and everywhere

i cant escape you

sometimes im fast enough
i can skip songs
before my heart realizes whats playing

but sometimes im not
suddenly youre everything
even the song and youre flowing
into my brain through my ears
and i can feel you spreading throughout my body
and the sadness is everywhere
even in my toes

problems

the problem with another person being your everything
is that youre left with nothing
when they leave

the problem with having so much in common with a lover
is that many more things remind you of them
when they leave

the problem with loving someone unconditionally
is that youre still going to love them
when they leave

the moment

i remember the moment

it was my birthday
state track championship
7 days til graduation
i was pleasantly buzzed
my house full of my dearest friends and family

but all i cared about
was the purest contentedness id ever felt
in exactly 18 years of life

sitting on that bed with you
scratching scratch tickets
innocently chatting and laughing
with the love of my life
