"I don't need you in my life, but I want you. That's the difference. I can survive without you, but why would I want to? Everything's better with you around."

You don't need me?
But only weeks ago did the air you breathe consist of my lips pressed against yours
And wasn't that oxygen the best kind?
You don't need me
But once upon a time you chained my body so tightly to yours and refused to unlock me from your arms
And now does my absence from your embrace haunt your empty shape?
You don't need me
But not long ago our hours melted together
time only freezing long enough for me to fix my gaze with yours
And now are your dreams haunted with the imprint my bright blue eyes left in your mind?
I hope they are.
I hope you remember it all, every word, every look, every insignificant detail, in screaming clarity
so loud it's impossible to ignore
I hope you remember my hands in your hair, my legs wrapped around your hips, my kisses down your neck, my whispers in your ear
I hope you get shivers thinking of my smile, my laugh, my tiny shape
I hope you bitterly regret making me feel anything less than your perfect girl
Because you're not my perfect guy
& you'll never ******* lips, you'll never steal my oxygen, you'll never press my body into yours
ever
again
And I hope that knowledge is why you cannot sleep at night
Because I sure as hell can't with all my memories of you
