when i close my eyes,
i picture laying on your chest,
with your hands wrapped around my waist.
it smells like vanilla and cherry,
it tastes like gingerbread icing,
it feels like home.

i don’t think it’s a coincidence,
how i stopped hurting myself the day i met you.
i don’t think it’s a coincidence,
how i feel safe in your arms.
i don’t think it’s a coincidence,
how you seem to fill all the gaps.


so why can’t we be more than a coincidence?

i’m getting what i want,
but not what i need.

and i’m giving all i can,
but also what i can’t.

we always joked that i was right about everything;

but i wasn’t right about you.

it’s been a few days since anyone asked how i am.
it’s been a few days since i said i’m alright.


it’s been a few months since anyone cared how i am.
it’s been a few months since i told the truth.

So much to say,
So few people to truly listen.
