it's weird
to think
there was
a time
i didnt
know you.
because now
you're all i think about
and the only one i
want to give my time to.
you're holding
my heart
in the palms of
your hands.
please, don't drop it.
when your hands
start feeling
heavy from the
burden of my love,
just give it back
gently.

treat people
better then
the world
treats you.

"you were always
a giver.
sorry i couldn't
give more."

everything stopped
for a moment or two
when we heard the news.
then chaos emerged
and tears flowed.
people fell apart
while everyone came
together.
we were holding each
other up
while we ourselves
were on the ground.
questions were asked
but the only one that
mattered
was how could
he do it
and leave us all shattered?
but then i realized
it wasn't about us.
it was about something bigger
and im sorry the world *****.

i don't miss
your mouth
nearly as much
as i miss your
eyes.
your mouth
whispered
secrets into
my skin but
your eyes,
my god,
you eyes
told me
stories and
they held
the lies
that eventually
broke me

like
petals
on
a
flower
after
full
bloom,
eventually
you
withered
away
and
became
dead
to
me
too
