She sat french kissing strawberries until all the good bits were gone.
Tapping *****, chipped nails against granite
Waiting to fall out of love.

Is it still ok to think of you when I'm all alone
and I just need someone to touch

Or what about when I'm exhaling sobs into pillows
and you're the only one who'd understand

My mind is my own
I'll imagine your hands, arms, and heart wherever I please
In my favorite dreams and fantasies you'll come back to me

& once again
I'll fall asleep
& wish
I never loved you

everywhere I go I see you
you're the clouds in the sky
the flowers in the garden
the stars at night

you were my superman
the one who was going
to live forever
now you're gone

I can never pick up the phone
and call you again
I can never tell you
how much you meant to me

you'll never be able to hold
me in your arms as I cry
daddy come back
I miss you

You thought that
You would never make a name for yourself
so you deprived yourself of one
and took your own life

You forgot that
You had already made a name for yourself
but now its deprived of You
So
I branded You upon my skin
With your date of birth and death
Your name has never died
So neither have You

You are the most precious name brand
Anyone could ever witness
And that no one could ever buy

You love to tell me the simplest of lies,
Like how you'll love me forever and I'm beautiful in your eyes,
You'll tell me I'm perfect and that you'll never leave,
But suddenly you're gone and I'm left to grieve.

How do you send a text without it sounding like come back
How do you send one when the words your itching to say are
"Hey I know we haven't talked in months but it's the anniversary of your mothers death and I'm beginning to realize that this will be the first year in 4 that I'm not the one to swallow your sorrow as you cry over something you never had the chance to have"

How do you send a text without it sounding like come back when just the mere thought of him reminds you of the day he kissed you beside the train tracks and you could have sworn you'd been hit.

How do you send a text without it sounding like come back when every time you begin your fingers change the words to how long it's been since you've felt his fingers and how even your skin craves him.

How do you send a text without it sounding like come back when every text begins with "this doesn't mean come back" and ends with "but please do"

You got under my skin,
and ripped my heart out of my chest.
You lit a match against my skin,
and then stayed to watch it burn.

              * I still cross continents for you.

Come back to me
As if you had never gone
Like you never walked away
Come back to me
Like a Saturday afternoon chat
The first message I read
with half open eyes
while covered in blanket
Like a broad smile I have after hearing you
Come back to me
Like walks we walked
holding hands juggling the traffic
Like kisses we exchanged on lonely roads...
Come back to me
Like a last laugh for I know
from this day on my eyes will never stop crying...
Like a last breathe I am wishing
for before I proceed to heaven....
Come back to me
Now...
For no one needs you more
No one loves you more than I do...
Come back to these empty arms
Come back home...
