it's easy to breathe
for you --
when the sky is a
clear blue,
nothing burns
not even
the spots
you last
touched

do to me
what
summer does
to flowers

make me
blush and
bloom to
the nature
trapped
beneath
your fingertips

you asked
why

I never tell
you that
I miss you
anymore

the truth is I do

but there are
no words that
can do your
absence justice

only my chest
my skin, my
bones, my eyes
my lips know
how I ache for
you

even the sun
can’t seep into
my pores like
you do
—
burning me
from within

When the
moon hugs your
skin tonight

a little part of
me will ache
for you

I read
your words
over and
over
again

Trying to
figure
if
you’ve written
anything
for me

Then I remember
I am not
her

I can't
remember
the way I
saw the world
before I
saw the
light in your
eyes

loving you
is a little
like bleeding
