It's okay

it really is

hadn't cried in a while

anyways.

I promise I'll be fine

that it's fine

I promise I'll be just as divine

as before

if not more

to ensure things haven't changed.

Thunder roils

In my bones

Lightning flashes

In his eyes.

We are a match made
In heaven/hell

And I can't wait to love you

In both.

I don't want to be
A lovesick puppy
Anymore.

But I'm a shaking chihuahua
Terrified of losing all of
These things we've accumulated together.

**** **** ****

i care about you so much

and you can't see it

and i want you to

but i don't know how

to open your eyes.

You're afraid of loss

I understand

but if it's loss you're trying to find from me

I'm sorry to say

your fears I must disband.

You won't be lost

and I won't lose you

I promise,

not now,

not ever,

you could never see

what you mean to me

but this is enough

this is alright.

Once upon a time

you shared your fears with me

Once upon a time

you thought I wouldn't be able to agree

and I wasn't.

Once upon a time

you told me you knew we all would leave you

Once upon a time

I tried to tell you not to be so blue.

Once upon a time

I promised I wouldn't let this go

Once upon a time

you didn't, couldn't, ever know.

You say that you're fine

that you don't love anybody

but we can all see

your true thoughts.

The truth is that you love everything too much

long to hold the hands of every girl and carry the secrets of every boy.

The truth is that you want to run

but your near-arthritic muscles force you to walk

that you look at HER with loving eyes only when she closes hers.

That you are drowning in love and suffocating in loneliness,

next time she opens her eyes,

SHOW HER.
