To Shaylyn (TumblrGirl)

I can feel your lips when I have yet to kiss you

I can feel your warmth although you haven't been near me

I hear your voice when you speak, but your voice isn't by my side, but it is in a wired up machine pressed up against my ear so when I hear you, I only have to use my imagination of what it'd be like if you were actually here.

If you were here, I could stare in your eyes as tell you how pretty they are.

If you were here, I could pull you closer.

If you were here, I'd tell you of the wonderful time I'm having with you

 

And if I had the chance to rearrange the time, I'd make it so we could have all the time together.

I'd make the impossible possible.

I'd tell you that in our world, the mentions of disappointment and pain is a thing of the past.

And I wouldn't change the past because our pasts brought us here.

And I want us to rule our world together for the better of our futures.


 

When we finally hugged,

My arms went around you perfectly

When we kissed,

your small lips and my big lips went well

Our moment of togetherness was something that I will never not hang on to and I won’t forget

Those 3 hours of waiting to see you was long yet it was worth it

And being with you was perfect…

 

And every day after that all I could do was think about you

All I could do was talk about you

And I would tell people how much I loved you

I’d tell them about how beautiful you look

I would describe to them how we danced even though you told me you weren’t a dancer

For the 9 months that I’ve known you to be the one person I could say I love,

And yet I was ditched and tossed aside no less than 3 days after the best day of my life because you have no love for me anymore

 

You say that you didn’t like how I acted,

You complained about how I wasn’t attractive enough for you even when you called me beautiful inside and out

You can push me aside so easily but before I left, you couldn't let me go.

So why am I being forced to believe all of these problems I created while I was with you, but yet they were things you fell in love with?

Why did you push so hard on the fact that you don’t like me anymore

But while I was there,

All you could do was tell me how grateful you were with me being there with you when no other guy could because I was the only one who truly loved you

And the bad part about all of this is that I’m not mad at you

Because I can’t be

And if you told me you loved me

You know I’d come running towards your arms

Because there’s no love stronger than mine for yours
