I want so badly to be in love
But not with you
I want to be in love with myself
Because then it doesn't matter whether you stay or leave

I want a lifetime of

Unfinished sentences
Stolen moments
Held breaths
And secret smiles

But only if it's with you.

Honestly I should've seen this coming,
Because when you spend your life sending people on a chase sooner or later they just stop running,

And I wish I could voice all of my emotions that consume my insides,
But they'd rather stay silent and so away they hide,

I want to know your last word before your very first,
Because then when you leave my heart will not burst,
For every hello there is always a goodbye,
Because time will not stop no matter how hard we try.

And Beloved?
              You will never die
  Because I will preserve you perfectly
                     In my ink.
Keep holding on and we'll make it through.

You were just a raindrop in my ocean but my god you created waves,
You rippled throughout my life and I just wanted more of what you gave

But then the sun returned and away went my cloudy day,
And sadly I'm left sitting here and there is nothing left to say

You are the sum of my heart,
