When I think about you my lungs forget how to work.
I miss you so bad I can't breathe or stop the hurt.
I think of you as the rock I skipped across the pond.
It skipped thirteen times before it sunk.
You lived thirteen years before you had enough.
I think that you were brave
but also so naive to think that nobody would miss you.
I think about you every day until my chest caves in.
Sometimes I look around at the world and start getting dizzy
because I know you're not here anymore.
I feel like I'm going to pass out when I think about you
being a skeleton in a dress somewhere underground.
For your sake I hope heaven exists.
For my sake I hope hell doesn't.
