My Metaphor is You
You were my words;
When I wanted to write a million
You were a race,
And **** I never seemed to win
You were the
stars,
How we both drank them up
Like lightning
We fell so fast
You were my breath
Which
ended
when we did
You were the spring
That fell out of each step
You were a
light
in my eyes,
Now mine flicker occasionally
You were my smile,
Which can’t help but falter
You are my mistake
The
best
one I’ve ever made
