Those days when we'd laugh and argue about the tiniest things. When you'd look at me with endearing eyes, and how I'd fit ever so perfectly in your arms.
Hours would become minutes. Where'd the time go?
The nights we spent under city lights just talking with our eyes.
When we'd walk so far we'd get lost in a whole new place with a different skyline.
We made the city ours within a matter of months.
The bitter air chilling my bones and you throwing your arm around me and holding me close.
To keep me warm.
I should've known you couldn't stay.
The truth spilled after the last anniversary.
The look in your eyes said things I'd wished I'd never had known. Now I'm understanding how you'd have me avoid one side of the city.
Tonight I'm staring out at the horizon of a different night.
On a different side of town.
Holding myself to keep warm.
I'm trying to keep the tears from my eyes because they cannot speak.
While yours are probably holding her gaze and telling her all the lies you'd ever told me.
