You're my love, my heart, my home, my sanity, my joy, my tears, my haven
How can I go on without what makes me, me

I had so many plans, that now won't come true
I wanted to last, be forever with you
I feel so forgotten
So can I just ask ?
Are you going through the same hell I'm going through ?
Or are you on the outside, enjoying the view ?

Why is it that the one thing that makes my days so bright
Also causes my darkest nights

Just one last touch, of your lips against mine
I'm longing for you, nothing more.

It's curious to see
How sadness and tears
Can bring forward
Such beautiful poems.

I'm constantly waiting for you to see
That it's not worse being with me
You said I made you happy
That everything else is a mess
So why get rid of
The one thing
That brought you happiness ?

These thoughts that linger in my mind
Engraved like stone
The warmth of a past
That now feels cold
and yet we still long
For that embrace
The echoing, of one last
"Hello"

I am scared, I am frightened
Mostly of my own mind
Some say I don't deserve it
Some say that I might

The truth is
If there was a way to go back in time
I'd go in a heartbeat
And make sure you'd stay mine

I feel like I'm a child again
at the grocery store with my mother,
getting distracted by people, by sounds and by lights
wandering off behind others.

The difference is, I'm no longer a child
and instead of my mother
it's you I'm struggling to find.

She is an open book
Some pages carefully written
Others scribbled on and torn
But in the end, each page is a piece of her
A book nobody wants to read

Love
Is just that
A word

A word with such power
It’s hurt
It’s lied
It’s killed

But what if love was something different?
To you it’s a sandwich, the crust cut off
To me it’s feeling the sun on my face
Because that’s how I feel when you look at me
Your ocean eyes, a portal to your soul
I could get lost in, for hours and days

And then love becomes more, more than it’s ever been
But love
is just that
A word.
