i wish
instead of texting goodnight
i could say come here
sleep here
escape with me.
             to me.
then whisper it in your ear.

Be here for sunshine
E over c2 Jul 2018
All i have to say is

You're my sunshine, even when you're brain is filled with rain clouds.
You're my warmth
My heart
My life even when you feel like yours is worthless.
My everything.
I want to show you
Show you so much
Show you that past these grey skies and night cries there's so much more.
I don't stop the thoughts of the future anymore
I let them come.
Because they prove to me that we can be so much.
And sure its terrifying, but i wouldnt have it any other way
I wouldnt have anyone else
I wouldn't be going from one mindless hook up to the next
I'd be with you.
I'd go to sleep happy knowing i found the one for me.
Thats why I'm telling you
You're going to be here tomorrow.
Not only for yourself, but for us too.
Because God knows i need my winter girl.
And i know deep down in you, you want that day too.
That day of soft thunder with love in sheets
Lame banana pancakes dancing to forgotten love songs.
Be here tomorrow for those, because I'm not giving up on that vision
I'm not giving up on you.
On us.
So in return, all I ask is you don't give up on yourself.

i'll be strong for you
i'll listen to my own words if you listen to them too
i'll be here for you if you dont push away
so let's talk; to leave those little black monsters at bay.

timeless and priceless
your voice through a crackling phone
is still music to my ears
even when you're miles and miles away

Why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why

Never left my head since I learnt the fucken word
And now my own actions make it an echo chamber
My mantra
Keeps me held in

A small hour with you
Makes a dull day bright
For through the day, of you
I will think until night.

It rains properly for the first time in weeks,
In the low clouds i see a mirror with your reflection
Umbrellas hiding the faces of the people around us
While they look away, kiss me.
In the rain

Winter arrives my love
The smell of damp flowers brings comfort complimenting yours.

Everything I do fails like like rain in summer
No matter how much I try I pour
It goes for nothing like evaporating away
I can't seem to be.

Why can't I do things right for those I love.

I'm so sorry
E over c2 Dec 2019
I'm so sorry
I'm sorry for not being smart enough to talk
I'm sorry for not acting how i should of
I'm sorry that i can't be the one for you right now.

But i want to be.
I want to be so bad.
I want to give you everything
I want to give you the world
But until i have a grasp on it, i can't offer anything.

Through everything, you have kept me grounded. Safe.
You make me sane
But I've been sane for too long,  i need time to figure out who i am.
And you need it too.

I wish it didn't have to be
I wish i could just see
I wish i could hold you tight and sleep through the night without a care of the world out there
But the world caught up
And I'm afraid if i don't let it take me now, we'll never have us.

Because i do want us. I want our winter wonderland. Our little things.
But right now i can't have that.

I want to love you with everything i have but right now i cant.
And i need to give me the time so that maybe one day i can
So that you can be treated like the angel you are

But as i sit here with tears down my cheek i beg of you to see that i can never stop loving you

No matter who or what gets in the way you will always be in my chest pulling my heart to keep pumping

And i know right now thats hard to hear, after all ive done.  After how much i hurt you.

And I'm so sorry that i did
I'm sorry i yelled and cried and waited too long
I'm sorry i wasn't clear
I'm sorry i wasn't your prince charming
I'm sorry this is going for so long and by this point I'm just rambling through a tissue box and tears

But by God i swear one day i want to be
I don't know when, so dont wait up for me
But dont forget me either.
For ill never forget you.

i found you
and i found this little clock
at very different times
but in the same time now

it ticks on when you feel like you cant
it ticks on when you wind it each morning
setting its motions into play so that it has a good ticking day,
like how we must work ourselves up to have our own good day
it ticks on during any dark hour
it ticks on when you need it to
when the world feels like its closing in
and getting faster and faster
hold it up and listen
steady
steady
steady

so keep it close for the times ahead
keep it ticking like a temporal anchor
keeping you steady through rough winds and waters
close to your ear, close to your chest, hold it and remember

it serves in place of me
when it feels like im too far
when we havent talked in a time
let this piece of time remind you
to unwind
to breathe
because i will still be here
and all i ask, is that you stay too.

stay strong my dear winter girl.

— The End —
