Still, at night
When I'm dazed and tired
And alone
I see you on the roof
Washed up in moonlight
Draped in sweet clouds of winter
And your melody breath
When the sun comes again and
Melts your dreamy vision away
Tell me, again
Tell me I'll be safe in time
In your melody breath

Temporary Infinite Inferno
I used to think I’d miss you forever. As if it was the only eternal piece of it all. I have learned that missing something temporary is temporary.
The art of missing someone is a luxury. It is opulent and rooted. A framed piece of valued nostalgia you can step into and clutch feverishly against your chest. The chaos of mourning: Your body at grips with their burn. Your edges light madly. You’re laying on the floor and you’re bursting into flames. You think: this is what they mean when they say “I’ll love you forever.” You feel their warmth without their touch. You learn: all fires burn out. The corners become worn. Your bones become smoldering embers. You spend day long afternoons looking for a match.
Eventually the missing becomes longing and then the longing becomes missing the longing and then and then and then and now. I should have known I’ll miss missing you forever.
Some nights, I light my life on fire and lay on the floor again to listen. Some nights, if I listen close enough, the crackling of the years resembles your laugh.

If life can remove people you never dreamt of losing, it can replace them with someone you never dreamt of having.

One day I will stop falling in love with you. Until I do, I'll be thinking of you.

It’s okay to still get sad about something you thought you’ve healed from.

now i am forced to somehow un-love you. as if i never craved your touch, your kiss, or simply your presence across the room. i am forced to pretend this heart is not longing for your return. we are now two strangers who shared a past, and an imaginary future together. i am forced to dry my tears at night and make myself believe this is for the better. my arms no longer have a home. and your absence will forever torment my soul.
