1.
Your smile is a memory of my past life still lingering in my bones. It flashes in the peripherals of my mind, even though they are not mine to remember.

2.
Your lips have whispered my name in the back of my neck in all other realities except this one.

3.
Your skin is the colour of the crescent moon on a tired day.

4.
Your eyes remind me of the first boy I even changed my skin for.

5.
Your voice reminds me of the bells my mother rings every morning out of habit. To say the least, it sounds like home.

6.
That scar reminds me of the lies that we both tell me.

7.
Sometimes, your name feels like fresh air. Like being lost, and being okay with that. But most of the time, it feels like being drunk alone.

8.
I have always been afraid to write about you, worried that I’ll bleed any luck between us on paper, but I have given up on that too .

9.
You tell me that you are hurting, and I don’t want to fix you. I want you as a whole. As the pain. Maybe that’s why I don’t deserve you.

10.
You tell me you like her, I say, I like her too; Go love her. You walk away with my words tied around your ankle holding you back, wanting you to look at me, but you break free. My words are weak and reek of approval and I leave it be. Let her leave scars on your heart, and on mine.
Bout a boy that I like; a lot. Just wanting and knowing that I can't have him. You know. that kind of stuff.
He is beautiful. And I'm weird. that's just it I guess. I know the title doesn't make much sense. But I was thinking of a title, and this just came to me. I'm lucky enough to know him, but not lucky enough to love him. and to have him love me back.

Um, hey. critiques. please. be a darling.
