I’ll always remember how we both told each other & ourselves that we were just young and having fun. It wasn’t until it all came apart that we both realized we had fallen for each other.
Your laugh sounded just like sunshine, I swear.
You still think I was asleep when you whispered you loved me and kissed my neck. I should have sat up and told you the same.
And while in the future, I might find someone who will reintroduce me to that rare feeling which you so effortlessly brought and kept, I know there are names and faces that change everything like cyclones in a field.
Remember the time we liberated that old bicycle from behind the school? You are one of the mad ones, and you brought out the best in me. I miss it.
Last night, on the way to meet my first date since we broke up, I unexpectedly passed the place where we had our first date. Never ever in my life had I wanted so badly to go back in time.
I think of the last time I saw you almost every day.
With all the confusion in your life right now, please find comfort in knowing that I love you.
I saw a shirt that would suit you. Unfortunately there’s no more you to buy it for anymore.
I remember us building that Lego roller coaster in the basement and you lost your patience, so we destroyed it and you made me ham and cheese.
You tasted like sugar cookies and rain even after all those months.
I thought it was my role to be the ground for your lightning.
I’ve got three dollars burning in my pocket to buy you a coffee and watch your face light up like it used to.
I’m not sure if I’m running from you or for you. Either way, you’re the reason I run.
When I asked you to come home this winter, I never thought that you actually would.
