lol i tried
she dyed her ginger hair
the brownish orange
bleached and dyed
now it's blue
or is it green?
it's been a while since i've seen her
last time i saw her
we frolicked in her grandmothers backyard
and layed on her mattress
and fought over the blanket
i counted each freckle
that dusted her cheeks
with a peaceful serentity
and worshipped her thighs
with quiet adoration
when we talk
i choke down
declarations of love
because they only make the
sting in my chest
hurt worse
and of course,
i want to see her
i miss her
like half my lung is missing
it's hard to breathe
she's a part of me
she's burrowed herself
deeply into my soul
and life without her
is bleak
but i must stay strong
because the joy i get
from the notion of future
a future where we can see eachother
every day
that joy
that giddy excitement
it keeps me going
and i can't let
my bitterness
at the distance between us now
break the possibility of greatness
and the love we share between us
because love is nothing
if not brittle
