have your heart given back to you
shattered and bruised multiple times
then come and ask why im so bitter

you're blood
but i feel like our love
has turned into lost water

we don't talk as much
but today we did
i got you for a whole hour

your face upon my screen
i don't think i realized how much i have missed you
i didn't realize how much i missed our laughs
until you had to go
and my throat swelled
my eyes watered
choked up a goodbye

screen shut
and the tears wouldn't stop coming
hands shaking
how could i let you slip away

do you get lost in my curls
big and dark, confusing
do you trace the lines of my lips
my light shade of pink
do i take your breath away
when words curl out of my mouth
speaking poetry and not even
knowing it
am i the kind of girl you would
stop on the street to compliment
am i beautiful?

how many people
can you really fall for
because in between a life full of
clutter and confusion
i somehow managed for fall for
a girl and a boy

i want to ask about
the letters i wrote to you
do you still keep them?
read them from time to time?

i asked you last July
you said you still had them
kept them through your
last girlfriend
because you promised me
that you would not just throw
them away

but im stuck wondering
how long did that promise last?
how long was it until nothing
we said mattered anymore?
