C
I'll give your jacket back a little later now
It still smells like you
I keep my shower a little warmer now
It reminds me of you
I dream about you a little better now
Because I lost you

You never gave me what I wanted
I still fell for you
I finally know for certain now
I love you

People say
that time flies by
and one day
you realize as you're lying in bed
that you're 80 years old
and it's 3 in the morning
and you're trying to remember
what it was like to have
a 20 year old mind
and a 10 year old heart
but see
by the time I was 10
I already had a broken heart
see when I was 9
I met a boy whose eyes
put the stars to shame
a lad whose smile
could light up the entire world
see when I was nine
I met the boy of my dreams
But to him, I was but
another weird girl
see what he doesn't know
is that the first time I saw him
leaning up against that wall
I thought to myself
I don't want anyone else
but him
see what he doesn't know
is that as we grew older
I fell in love with him
see what he doesn't know
is that no matter how many times
he breaks my heart
my heart still looks
for him
but there is one thing
I know
and that is
that when time
suddenly flies by
and it's 3 in the morning
and I'm 80 years old
and have forgotten everything
and am trying to remember
what it was like to have
a 20 year old mind
and a 10 year old heart
I know
I know
that I will remember
**him
My bestfriend.

Writing is my most
Selfish act

I don't write for anyone
But myself

I don't write because
It's a want
I write because
It's a need

But I did once write
To bring you back
Eh.

I love him so
   It's killing me though
Him

You
You and your words
Got in my head
Dug their way
into my heart
My pain is
what they were fed
They illegally
Snuck into
My cracks
And gently sewed them up
They crawled to my bruises
And gave them gentle kisses
All the while saying
It's okay
You're okay
You're with me
Now
Makes no sense what-so-ever. Written at 2:30 am. Only because I needed to get it out.

You
use to
comment on how
cold my hands always
were, back when you had
them to hold. I guess when
your heart is of ice, it tends
to somehow show Even in the
small ways, like the heart-to-hand
ice flow.
Forever missing him.

It’s 3 in the morning 

And you’re on my mind

As you’ve always been 

With my thoughts intertwined 

You’ve made it your home 

This lonely place 

Removed the shalome

When you showed your face

Are you here to stay?

Or soon to go?

Only time will tell

Soon I’m to know
They say they hope my dreams come true. I guess they forgot nightmares are dreams, too.
