In a heartbeat,
we were forged.

We adhered well...
Like bone to sinew.

But alas...
Furious is the blaze
in our hearts we torched.

In a blink all is lost...
Like early morn's dew.

When my eyes gaze into yours
the whole world stands still.
when I stare into a mirror
all I see is a seething and distressed gaze
so please help me forget
kiss me with your bright gaze now
look at me
grab my hand
gently
and hold me
because somehow you become my escape from reality
and even if it takes a while
i’ll try and see me;
the way you see me.

you were a refreshing punch in the face. talking to you was like breathing in the crisp fall air after several months of the heat. for some reason you were so intriguing and my hands didn't even shake when i was around you. soon enough i fell in love with your laugh and how you made me feel, besides at 3 a.m because my heart ached to see you. i became in love with all your flaws but they weren't really flaws because they were perfect to me. you made me feel so safe and alive and although most days i wish i was dead you made me happy to live. you made me want to try, you made me want to be a better person. i cleaned up my mess of a life and even got out of bed early to see you. i was so consumed with you and before i even knew it you became my entire universe
