I always fall in the wrong lake of what people call "love". They told me to be kind. They told me to be radiant, and gentle, but I ended up a misused copy of a book that was written under regret and misery.
I've never thought it was wise to call a person by their appearance, but when it comes to you, all words seem too boring, too used, too stupid.
I want you to always remember the feeling of me, even long after you've washed your hands. And just like me, the clouds fell for you and cry because they can't have you. A thousand lessons were taught to me the moment I let you take a part of me, the same moment I knew I'd never be the same. I hear him speak about life with a frustrated tongue and an indignant tone that makes me want to hold him and whisper sweet words, reminding him that life can be soft. even with knives as hands, even with everything.
