i miss the way you look into my eyes
I miss the way you make me laugh.
i miss the butterflies
I miss being able to hold you.
i miss sharing my soul with you
I miss the kisses and hugs.

i wish i could hold you
I wish you would share your soul with me.

I sit down,
breathe,
and keep my head down

You stand up,
hold your breath,
and walk away

It's foolish that I keep coming back to this place.
It's childish for me to continue living like this.
It's time I move on.

I look to you and smile
You look back and our eyes meet

We don't say anything
We look away

I wake up and I am heavy with the weight of last night
My whole world collapsing onto me
Outside the cool rain touches my skin
The rhythm of the droplets crashing from the sky
The essence of the rain permeating the ground
It cleanses me and I shed my armor for the new day

My thoughts race around in my mind like fireflies in the night.
I lay in my bed with my head spinning.
The dazzling glimmer of their light in the dark illuminates me.

My life comes together like constellations in the sky.
I begin to connect the dots.
The faint glow reminds me of the time that has passed.

My fears dissolve into the air and I feel at home.
I walk down the path ahead.
The darkness doesn't scare me anymore.

I question eternity.
In my life nothing is forever.

I examine eternity.
The infinite hum of silence
The eternal glow of the sun
