three words
I love you
it can be uttered so easily around you
and I think how it only took one moment to know
you were my forever
I think of a familiar smile
kind and warm eyes staring back at me from the screen
the familiar laugh or tone of that beautiful voice
jokes to make me laugh
and teasing to keep me going through the day.
God I love you so much that my mind won't let me stop thinking about you
I see your face in the busy traffic
and hear your laugh in the breeze
think of you when I see the moon
knowing you see the sun.
I think of you when I tie my converse.
when I go to school.
when I paint on the canvases.
God I think of you.
I think of you when the world is quiet at night.
when the sun rises in the morning with its beautiful glow.
If only I could simply just reach out
brush my fingertips across your skin,
feel your warmth
or even see your smile.
I would cross the sky
cross the oceans and rivers to reach you.
yet here I am.
a girl with no way to reach you.
no way to touch your skin
or hold your hand.
lonely.
lonely is the word I use to describe my heart
the way I feel right now.
lonely is the empty hand
lonely is my skin
cold am I
sitting here in a wasteland of emotion.
alone.
