Every time I see you, my heart bursts open,
And all the blood rushes to my face,
Turning me crimson pink.
And your smile, God that smile,
It fills me up with beautiful.
I didn’t mean to fall, but ****,
I’m a clumsy girl I guess.
The way your lips so easily grasped mine,
In the crowd of the ***** basement,
428 Monroe Street, I couldn’t stop smiling.
And we were surrounded by rainbow lights,
And in the morning you texted me because you couldn’t sleep.
And you thought of me.
12:01AM, 11/11, one week later,
How things had changed.
And suddenly, few days pass,
And sadly, sadly,
How things have changed.
I want to understand sunlight with you,
Contemplate pillows and blankets and alcohol.
Dreaming and wishing and the way you made me laugh,
Oh, how I wish things had worked out.
And I have no idea where it all went cloudy,
Or why you just stopped caring so much.
But it’s done.
And you’re gone.
And it hurts.
