I Miss Us

Do you remember

The games of soccer

At the park?

 

Do you remember

The night we created our book series

Roasting smores over a firepit?

It’s where we took that first picture

 

Do you remember

The time we spent Halloween watching Ghostbusters at my house?

I do.

I remember every moment.

I replay them in my mind,

Wishing we were forever.

 

If I could turn back time

I would go back to 2020

To relive the memories we made

 

I printed that picture of us last night

October 30th, 2020

We never finished our story

But there’s expiration dates

On the friends you make

 

I try to rewrite our ending

But the words are set in stone

And it’s too late

We’re already gone;

The rest of you have moved on.

  • Revival

    One day,

                 you will feel pain so excruciating it becomes abstruse. You will feel numb, detached from the world, lost in a void of darkness. 

  • I love you

    -Can I tell you something?

     

    (I have a secret deep within my bones, deep within my heart. I am dying to tell you.)

     

         -Yeah, anything.

    -I love you.
