if i could experience it all over again
even with every ounce of pain
and each waking moment of ache
i would not think twice
i would do it in a heartbeat
for you, for us.


you're the only one worth of all this torture.

The clocks in our hearts were in sync;
We felt it.
Too bad it wasn't our time.

I guess
the good thing
about having many scars
is that
new wounds
rarely
leave a mark.

If I were a painter,
he would definitely be my muse.
But amidst the shades
of black, gray, and blue
there wouldn't be
a color dark enough
to match the sadness
in his eyes.

☔

I tried my best to rekindle our fire;
You just watered down all my attempts.


All efforts were futile.

I'm sorry
I keep comparing
you and everything we have
to the ghosts
of my past.

she is
a pretty little flower
but beware
of the poison
that runs deep
in her roots.
