Last Things Last

Last things last,
I miss you. 

I miss your blonde locks that twirled in the moonlight
on the beaches that were forever ours 

I miss your iridescent eyes
glowing with the knowledge that you so eloquently acquired

I miss your stifled giggles 
the ones that no one was supposed to hear because it was midnight and we weren't supposed to be awake

I miss your doe-eyed innocence 
how your eyes expanded into vast pools of midnight when you were shocked

I miss you flaunting yourself as we strolled hand in hand down the street
how your rich laugh coated me like honey when I twirled you on the sidewalk in front of everyone

I miss how you lived 
because now you're gone and a piece of me followed you into the exact abyss you so desperately tried to avoid
