your face still burns.
my mind eyes sees & smiles.
i kiss you.
you taste of air.
– – – – –
a wondering sense of loss
a strange removal
distance built between two loves
yours has died.
mine lives on.
– – – – –
two naked children left alone
a girl of such sunny disposition
& a boy who dreams and bleeds in wrists.
she cries for him.
he needs her.
– – – – –
i stand before her and watch her smile.
delicious pain flows through my mind.
tears roll.
she’s died.
– – – – –
we stand again and gaze in eyes.
hers dreaming.
mine dying.
people hate and stand between.
no longer can i touch you.
– – – – –
my heart breaks and falls.
young skin pleases
teases
walks away.
– – – – –
if i could hold you
if i could love you
if i could make you smile.
then all my dreams
all my dreams
would fix us
– – – – –
and i let you go.
i let you die.
i let the dream of you escape my brain.
fantasy kissed. fantasy held.
you stand so prettily.
you break me.
~ thoughts about the girl who died, & more about the girl unseen. i love them both.

yes. both exist. both unattainable. both loved. one who now lives in my past. one who lives now. most of what i write is real, as this is easier to write about i find..plus writing on here is an outlet for the way i feel about things. but thank for saying you’re in awe – that’s a beautiful thing to say & i appreciate that greatly! š it’s nice having you look around my brain! š

I am not sure if both girls really existed or just a product of your creative thoughts…either way, I am in awe as how you vividly put into writing your feelings and thoughts on both of them…
