last lap

the day that you finally left was
the day that my heart slowly stopped beating
and my hands started shaking

B

You meant the world to me. You kept me sane when I thought I might go crazy. You were my escape. I was okay for a little while after you left, but ****. My heart feels as if it has sunk deep into my chest and went into hibernation. I feel so numb and I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not. There's not a lot I feel anymore, but God, when I think about how much I miss you, I can't help but tear up and feel like screaming. It's been three months and it still hurts the same. My heart stopped the day I lost you and it hasn't started beating since. Maybe that's a good thing, though.

Sun

I envy the sun.
It gets to shine on your charming face everyday,
stare at you from far above...

It will burn you, love you too much,
but you will bear with it,
and love it still.

It will hide its face for some time every night,
Turn it's back for awhile to take care of others,
and you will always wait faithfully and long for its return.

It will leave you little toys,
Trips to other worlds that shine bright,
Little holes in the galaxy
That connect like a connect-the-dots games,
To keep you entertain while it is away at work.
But you still long for it and love it still evermore.

It will stay with you,
watch over you,
take care of you and give you a smile,
keep you healthy.

And you always long for a bright, sunny day,
and stay gloomy when it's gone...

But I guess you need a dose of Vitamin D,
more than you need a dose of Vitamin Me.

Home

I never felt
like I belonged
Anywhere
until I met you.
Before you,
I floated and drifted
but never found
a place I could call
my own.
In your arms
Was the only place
Where I ever felt
Like I belonged,
Like I was home.
That cold, February night,
I settled into you
and knew you were the home
I’d been searching for
for so long.
You silenced my demons
so I could sleep
safe and sound
next to you.
There aren’t many things
I wouldn’t give
to lie next to you again
and wake up to your lips
on my cheek,
or stay in bed with you
until the late afternoon
forgetting that
time even existed.
It wasn’t until I met you
that I realized
home isn’t a place;
sometimes it’s a person.
And mine had blue eyes,
a reckless smile,
and I loved him.
I still do.
I always will.
