I wish you knew how much
Space
You took up in my brain

I know you’d look at me and say
Don’t do that to yourself
And I promise
I promise
I hear you when you speak to me

I know, I know
Not here, not now
But what about another
Time
Another
Space

I love you
For what it’s worth
And only what it’s worth to you
I love you
Shaylie Jul 2020
Things would never be the same as they had been
Not yesterday
Not today
Never again

But I think, I would love you forever
And when the wind blows past
I will remember the way you wrapped your arms around me
Shaylie Jul 2020
Bone breaking,
Aching,
Loneliness,
It’s the marrow in your bones now,
Seeping out,
When they crack open
Shaylie Jul 2020
Then I thought about how
You only make me cry
Bone breaking loneliness
Creeping all inside
Shaylie Jul 2020
One day you wake up
And you just are
For a moment
Suspended in your dreams
Shaylie Jul 2020
And yes it’s true,
I love the earth more than I love you,
Mountains move in me,
And soft earth cradles me,
The way I wish you could have.

Wet dew, gentle kisses
Save loneliness, I am never alone
With the sun, and the moon
The soft leaves, and the green trees
Shaylie Jul 2020
Someone can be the sun to you,
And you are the earth,
Just the third rock out,
Wanting to be close to them,
But they **** you, they melt every surface
They can live without you
But you can’t live without them
Their gravitational pull
Their warmth
