you know, i think it's weird how
your embrace is the only thing
i desire, the only warmth i crave
and need. i say weird because
my hurt and heartbreak, the
disappointment i feel down
to the very marrow of my bones
is down to you, it's because of you.
the tears slipping from the corner
of my eyes at night when i'm
restless and can't sleep is because
of you. and i lay there in the dark
and wonder if you ever feel the
same. if you think about us,
about the unbelievable connection
we had and still have, about all
that we lost over silly complications
that could've been solved if you
tried. it's strange how even after all
the hurt, even in the midst of
heartbreak, i want your soft touches,
your arms, the only safe haven i knew.
