absence makes the heart grow fonder but what does it do to the rest of you? watery eyes, framed by damp lashes tear stained cheeks, mouth turned down but only at the tips arms, wrapped around your body thoughts, drifting between past and present fingers, mindlessly tracing the same patterns you used to draw on me but its okay my heart is fonder.
