I shouldn't have
relied on you so much
but I forgot you were a stranger
because you seemed like a magnet to me
you were the proton to my electron
we were opposites
but opposites attract, don't they?
I'll never forget
the way a glimpse of your copper hair
and your weathered moccasins
made my heart smile
the way I let you see my brain
when I didn't even know yours
I shouldn't have relied on you so much
but you were the only reason I had to smile
and knowing that I'd see you
with your shoes off and your crumpled papers
everyday
was the shield I used to keep the darkness away
you lifted my head out of the water
so that I wouldn't drown
but now that you're gone
I realize
I forgot to tell you
that I can't swim.
