Days grow colder as time without you passes
thoughts of you only strengthens the promise of a long winter
heart broken in pieces is just now being understood
I honestly hurt
the future so dark and grim
without you its worse
tethering on the edge, deaths my only comfort
It all drains back to you
you're gone
forever.

Your voice was as sweet as a siren
A conscious contradiction
You said that love is impossible
But I heard the waves inside your ribcage
And saw you smile upside-down
a moment so fragile, so precious, so rare
that when you try to put it into words
even the most beautiful words fail you.
heaving shoulders heavy hearts
shaky breathing comforting arms
squid-shaped clouds against a gradient sky
tired eyes that close to let yourself fall apart.
pinky promises stay strong
something bigger than the both of us
looms,
but for now i think i could spend forever in your arms

contextually inappropriate but i felt the need to pen this down
it felt like something bigger
i am afraid of the deflation
please don't leave me empty again

15/5
so this was actually about a very sad day but i guess sometimes you do find the beauty in the sadness
