Left you somewhere between the city and the sky

[dosedtillmidnight]

At the end of the day, it’s you on my mind.

e.h

[dosedtillmidnight]

Home seems unknown

I keep going back to the places you used to visit.

I keep roaming around your city, in those little coffee shops

Hoping to see you once more.

When I do, I won’t say a word.

I’d run, as fast as my legs can go

To push myself up against your chest and hold you tight in my arms

I’ll tell you how hard it all has been, to live and breathe without you.

I’ll tell you I’ve missed home

and your eyes will tell me once more it’s time to let go.

[dosedtillmidnight]

Does your heart still ache like mine when you hear my name?

e.h

[dosedtillmidnight]

“Are we just friends if it’s your breath on my neck late at night or if it’s our laced fingers beneath your covers? How tightly do we need to be pressed against each other before you admit that you aren’t doing this for warmth? How many times does your thumb need to brush my lips before we realize that we’ve gone too far?”

— tara love / this. this is too far.

[dosedtillmidnight]

Wait

I’ve waited, waited for you to come back in time

I’ve waited, with open arms

I’ve waited, day and night

I’ve waited, and I’ve begged

Until one day, I didn’t wait anymore

You crossed my mind, but I didn’t want you anymore

And here you are, trying to come back once more.

well-wisher

Somehow I learned what love was once you didn’t want me.

It didn’t matter if I had you

It didn’t matter if I could call you mine

Or tell you how my day was

It was more about seeing your smile

Whatever that reason was

It was when my jealousy turned into well wishes

It was when another girl’s arm around you

made me think that you’re happy

and that’s all that mattered

So my little bird, I hope you smile

I hope you achieve everything you desire

And selflessly be yourself in this world

love,

your well-wisher

I hope the love I give everyone else will someday find its way back to me.

Missing you

So, here I was trying to make sense of the past one year you’ve spent with my soul.

As tender as your touch felt around my neck, somehow your grip got tighter with time.

Somehow your silence made more sense than all the words you were feeding me.

So tell me, what was the point of all of these?

Taking the time to know each other, every scar, every line on our face

Just to try to forget all of that and become strangers again.

How pathetic human beings are, or maybe just you and me.

Jealous me, careless you.

Obsessive me, charming you.

In the end, there’s no more me, and there’s no more you.
