Your in your room, sitting on the floor, blocking the door so no one bothers you. You have your phone in your hand hoping and wishing he would call or text. Makeup runs down your face from all the tears. In your head you replay all of the memories and fun times but mostly there last conversation. You wishe you said things differently then you did. You think to yourself, I'll never get him back.

We sat about, legs relaxed and necks at ease.
Our window let in a light breeze, softly tumbling your hair onto the sheets.
I kissed your cheek,
Soft and tender to let you sleep.
I could feel the warmth of your glowing skin against me,
As shafts of golden light cascaded into the room.
No star could ever outshine you,
And I knew, in that moment,
That I love you.

I love you more than there are grains of sand beneath every ocean of every planet.
I love you more than there are points of light in every sky there is tonight.
I love you more than splendid summers under setting suns, inhibitions floating away with the flowers in the air.
You can wake up whenever you want, or you can lie in bed all day;
I'll be right here with you either way.

(i) want to ask about how she hurt you
the summer that you (changed)
(but) i am afraid that the truth
will make you realize
how many flaws (i) hold
because she had so little.

and i am afraid that my imperfections
were your favorite things about her.

i'm scared you (won't) smile like you did
with her in arms.

because she is the kind of perfect
i could never (be).

i am afraid that i am not (good)
at making you happy.

mostly i am afraid that i won't be
(enough).

I don’t think it takes much to fall in love

Sweet whispers of cute nothing’s

dance through your head

because some fool

spoke a new language to you

and every word 
was magic 

and with every word 
you fell

and your heart 
began to love his voice

And the simple smile

that shines in his eyes 

like the stars at night 

and only a few see it

because most are asleep 
when the stars are awake
 and soon the stars twinkle at you

and you fall

The way his hand 
made you feel  
like the dust
 dancing in the sunlight 

light as air
and 
full of simple beauty 

and with his touch
 you fell

And by now it’s too late

because you fell for his

voice

smile

eyes
 and touch

Love

but for you darling 
I hope it doesn’t happen often

because to have it once forever

is much better 
than millions of times 

if you fall too much

you’ll eventually break
