Poems

If I could, I would erase every bit of me from your mind. You won’t remember ever loving me. You won’t remember why you ever stopped.

How did you lose me? You never let me love both of us at the same time.

My love for you grew upward like a tree. Under their branches you found shade. I hoped your love wouldn’t fade. But in my winter you left me. In the cold you thought my branches Were there to help your start a fire And instead of saying you loved me You put a chainsaw through my heart.

I don’t care if I survive you. You are the only time I’ve ever felt alive.

Nice guys. Last message. Last goodnight. Last kiss. Last love. Finish last, eh?

Heartache was the price I paid for loving deeply, How lucky I am to afford it. In my darkest days, I had solar-powered happiness, And she wore sunshine in her smile.

Spent my spare time trying to convince my shadow that I am someone worth following. Now, I stand back to back with mountains to show them how much I have grown.

7 billion smiles and few have I sought with such relentlessness as I have yours.

I wanted to be her ex-boyfriend’s stuntman. I wanted to treat her the way they never had the courage to.

The sun will rise again.
