Flashes strike my mind
Like when I said
I miss you so much
So much that
I will never let go,
I promise,
I promised
Of dreams
Where I find myself
Asking you to stay
Asking you to tell me you did love me
And you answering
“yeah, yeah, yeah”
Sarcastically
Of places we never saw
Of smiles we never gave
Of words that refused to
Leave our hearts
Only flashes I repeat
How only now
I can fathom it
Hindsight is 20/20
Hindsight makes it
Look obvious now
How I wasn’t ready to love
How you weren’t ready to give
How it wasn’t the right time
To fall in love
To fall out of love
To fall
Just to fall
Falling,
I keep calling for this voice
Different, not warm
Not cold either
Just plain
Plain in a way that
Finally makes me love myself again
Despite you
Despite the mistakes
Despite this cold weather
These brand new eyes
Of a brand new being
That shines more humbly
Than any light I’ve ever seen
That cares deeper
And harder and in ways
No one’s ever cared about
My scars
The ones that
You failed to see
He sees
He cures
The cure,
No one ever notice they’re sick
Home sick of their old selves
Until someone tells them
“hey, you're different”
& they mean
“you changed, you lost yourself”
Yourself
You should look at yourself now
And look at me
Look at the moon
Look at the stars
Look at the way
He looks at me
He pays attention
Like the world is inside my heartbeat
You can hear music in me
Hear all the songs I lost along the way
And finally remembered
And they’re louder than ever
