His fingers ran up my leg like a snake searching the bottom of a rain forest.
His eyes shifted to my lips, with a need, he stared.
But I was okay, I was okay with the need.
I was okay with the grip he had on my hair.
I was okay with the way he smashed his lips to mine.
I was okay.

I hate you!
The way you scream your words,
and how you know how much they hurt.
I hate the way you make me feel,
and how your smile is surreal.
I hate the way you hold my hand,
and pretend that you can.
I hate the way you pull my hair,
because I know that you don't care,
about the way you make me feel,
and how your kisses make my squeal.
I hate the way you bite my lip,
and make me cringe when you grab my hip.
I hate when you pull off my clothes,
and make all my worries turn to hopes.
I hate that I love you.
I love you.
Sigh

You were perfect.
Your fingers settled into mine like laces lace to a shoe.
Everything in that moment felt just right.
You were perfect.
The cold weather, and lack of words.
The silence was perfect for the words i couldn't say.
You were perfect.
I still remember the smile you made when I said that,
the right amount of you  liar, and you  too.
You were perfect.

I could smell the rain.
Such a beautiful function,
lifeless.
drip, drip.
Sounds of such ease,
smell of such comfort.
A disaster in the making,
yet the most peaceful simplicity.
I could smell the rain.
Rain

I reached across the table in hopes her hand would too.
But the blank stare on her face and my depression both grew.
The thunder roared at itself as the lights flickered.
The smell of coffee filled the little coffee shop.
Her, a coat and 5 days of unspoken words crushed my mind.
I glanced at the floor in hopes she would speak but she didn't.
She couldn't, and for that I lay my head on the table top,
whispering love songs in my head.
I could feel the sway of unkindness taunt me.
Her eyes spoke of emptiness and questions even I couldn't answer.
She laughed, holding a long sigh at the end.
I brushed my hair out of my face, glancing at the perfection in her smirk.
I had done nothing, therefore my head pounded with nonsense assumptions as to why she laughed.
Her laugh was like a symphony that only gets better on repeat.
Her hand dragged across the table, clinging to mine, our fingers intertwined and in that moment i felt what it was like to love.
In that moment, we  were  infinite.

Your hand felt cold,
almost as cold as the way you explained your heart to be.
I never believed that.
How could something so beautiful have a heart of filth?
Not you, no.
Your heart was beautiful, Your heart was gold.
And the way you explained mine to be, the words you used,
worked perfectly for the way i saw yours.
I began to be content with the way you felt for me,
and you content with way i felt for you.
We were okay knowing that we saw the bright in each other.
We were okay knowing that we saw the dark too.
We were okay.
It's okay
