Writing from the Heart

A trip down memory lane, Ice skating, laughing, lovin' Your smile branded into my brain. Our hearts beating, woven Together like lace. A perfect day, stilled Frozen in cold space. Our bodies thrilled. Your laugh echoing in my ears, My hands kissing your cheeks. Hopeful for the years, Ahead, even in the upcoming weeks. A trip down memory lane, White Hallet Davis & Co.  Singing in the time of rain. The notes falling like snow. Your lips touching mine Behind a rolled down window, Hoping that time will make it fine. That I won't miss you. It's been two years since that Moment, social media doesn't fail To remind me of my prince. As if I'm behind bars in jail. Waiting for you to release me, Hoping you'd come home. So I can rejoice in glee. Maybe take a trip to Rome. A trip down memory lane, Weary kisses from a well-fed nap. Love running through my veins. Our bodies filling in the gap. Holding you closely to my body. Branding your touch into my skin. You were alwa...

I want this to end. Don't want to feel. Don't want to think. Don't want to love. You make it a habit. Talking to me just  To see what I'd say. You haven't changed. The brokenness you feel Has always been existent Even in the time we spent  Together...making me feel broken. I deserved more time. I deserved to be loved. I deserved your trust. I deserved your commitment. You speak words of regret. But your actions don't change. You say leaving me was your  Biggest mistake. Then you make it clear That you're still with the  Same girl you left me for. The same girl you spent More than 365 days with. Giving her the time I deserved. Giving her the attention I deserved. You haven't changed. I don't think you ever will. By the time you realize it. The opportunity of us Would be long gone. I can't wait for you to wake up. I've moved on and you did too. You only gave me 7 months. 210 days...that's all I deserved in your eyes. You have no right to te...

I wish there were enough Words to tell you just how Much I miss you, your  Eyes, your breath, your lips. The things I want to say Become lost in the silence Between the waves of  Static. Labored. Non-existent. When I least expect it, You pull me back in  With an ease that only You can do--create. I respond casually, Thinking that the conversation Would lead to an apology  Or a pathway back to each other. I hope you got enough  Of a dosage of my attention. So you can go on for another  Five months with no communication. The actions I want to express Become frozen in a state of  Wonder, hoping that someday I can hold you again. To kiss your cheeks, Your neck, your lips, And your chin. To feel your breath Linger against my collarbone As I breathed in your scent. A scent I no longer remember. A scent I wish I had back. I wish there were enough Words to tell you that I  Never wanted to give up on us. I had so much hope for the future. So...
