hourglass

i am running out of ways to try to get you to kiss me back

your eyelids are very soft and shot with purple veins and they look like the first morning after rain

i am willing to wait

after all this it’s hard to know whether you care about me anymore but

i am waiting for you once again

i am running out of time

the first time i told you that i loved you i wanted to cry a little and maybe i should have but i was already in your arms and it felt like something slipped inside of me

i am learning to listen to what my body is telling me

i am running out
