I can still see you in the dark and as I trace your silhoutte on my wall, you juggle your last piece of cigarette between your fingers-- disregarding the heat. I can still feel you in the wind with your scent that draws all the girls in town to you or even when you smell like alcohol and fall from your seat. I can still write down your name when I thought my pens grew tired of bleeding for you and now my blank sheets will be your tomb-- keep them marking on repeat.
