You Are One Of The Things I Love The Most That I Will Never Have
I love the sun, the moon, the stars and you.
I love the sun, the moon, the stars and you.
Because that’s what it means to heal
from you, I had to empty myself
of you, no trace of the subtle kisses you’ve
mapped on my spine.
Lay your parts,
lay all your parts
on me
let it mar my skin
You are loved, darling.
And maybe sometimes, you just
need to hear someone
tell you that
you are.
I had my heart broken
for wearing it on my sleeve
too often and too long.
I have written so much
of you,
it is as if you live and
breathe and thrive in
every syllable
i have always
known that nothing is
ever permanent,
that sooner or later,
things will end
let me love you
the only way i
know how-
through these words.
iv. breathe. take long, deep breaths. fill your lungs with life. breathe, even if you feel like it would rip your insides apart.
i could only wish that the
corners of my room could keep
all my secrets and that the walls
wouldn’t shake from the weight
