“You left my heart drowning in the sea of loneliness.”

And her hair smells like a thousand lilac roses drenched in rain.

Broken crayons still color.

She still lives in the silence between my thoughts.

The turmoil of her past is blazing my breath.

A sky is full of stars. Still, I am gazing at her eyes.

I still find myself searching the crowds for your face.

Even our shadows were made for each other.

Even the flowers are jealous of the curves of her body.

She is a kind of poison I would die for.

I miss how her whisky lips used to run all over me.

I am just a star in the space of her memories.

My eyes thread of happiness leads back to you.

You were the hardest lesson I ever had to learn.

It’s hard to breathe when she is not around.

She is the moon covered in the dress of stars.

She is the answer to my every prayer.

I’ve experienced departure far too much to have the courage and call anyone my own.

The worst part about toxic relationships is, you might not realize the toxicity as long as the relationship lasts.

I broke my own heart, hoping that you would find parts of me that you could love.

Sometimes a heart needs to break to make an exit for all the pain.

A lifetime of suffering will never be worth a moment of love.

And the darkness felt suddenly like home again. Like a familiar place in the shadows where we used to meet.

Every love that once promised you a forever will leave you at some point in your life and all that is left is a forever in boxes full of fading pictures and aching memories.

She won’t bend and break as you’d expect her to, she’s a solid form of bravery and fearlessness and that can’t be undone.
