Unwanted words keep spilling from my mouth and I can't escape them. They cling to my surface, twisting and seething every time I reach my pathetic hands towards you. Why did I even bother? I knew from the start that I was destined to fail, that there was nothing worth dwelling upon in my cold blue eyes and numb, emotionless smile. You were my youth, my everything, but you were gone before I had you. You're a wingless bird flying further, further away from me, the beginning of summer in the middle of a blizzard.
