I lay
on his chest
for hours 
and listened 
to his heartbeat
and the blood
pulsing through
his vague veins
like waves
and
I watched 
every breath
that he took
watched him sleep
so quietly 
because
I would not 
m i s s
a single
second 
of it

let me kiss
your scars
even the smallest ones
because all of them
tell a story
about loneliness
and empty words

lack of control
and sleepless nights
filled with nothing
but regret and fear
bittersweet comfort
in the silence of the night
nothing but salty tears
and shattered mind

let me kiss
your scars
all of them
because i need you
to know
how important
you are
to me

her
she was beautiful
in every way i could think of

she had the blue eyes
that made everyone fall in love with her
she made me fall in love with the sparkle
in her eyes

she had a smile
that made everyone fall in love with her
she made me fall in love with her
tender smile

she had long, blonde hair
that made everyone fall in love with her
she made me fall in love with the way
she swung her hair

she was so beautiful
in every way i could think of

but instead of painting pictures
she played with razors
and instead of singing songs
she refused to eat
and instead of dancing around
she pushed herself too hard
and instead of smiling
she cried her heart out
and instead of kissing me
when i wanted to kiss her the most
she kept her mouth shut
and did it all over and over again
until she ran out of

                                   lies
                                        stories to tell
                                                       homework to do
                                                              ­                  excuses

and she ended her life
without knowing
that she ended
mine too

I sat on a windowsill
at 2 AM
dressed in nothing
but a thin sweater
and smoked
one of my last cigarettes
as i looked at the dying stars
with silence
as my only friend
i thought
of you
