Dec 2012
I told myself you were the sun.
I bathed in the light you radiated.
You warmed me up.
You made me happy again.

But I could never fall asleep
just thinking about you.
It was never that simple,
and it wasn't quite right.

Now I'm looking at old photographs
that I took down from the wall;
there I am, smiling with your arm
wrapped around me -- you were looking away.
