Am I still your sunshine?
Can you still love me?
I’ve never stopped loving you.
And if I’m being honest, I don’t think I ever will.

If I could create a swirling haze,
I think I’d keep you right here.
In a hidden dream, (will it ever really be clear?)
….
……
And yet,
I still go looking for you in the space between,
Watching sunlight pour through leaves.

Can we ever go back,
to when you sang me to sleep?
Can I reach through,
to a time of hidden memories?

If you’d stay here, I’d put your head on my lap,
And stay with you through it all.
I’d give you the breath in my lungs,
And watch you shatter my heart,
If only to see you again.

I hope you never lose the fire you hold inside you.

I'm not giving up on you.
I'm not in denial anymore,
and I know that everyone expects me to move on.

Streaked by rain
Hair matted down
To their face
Watching from my window
Up on their toes
Glass pressed to nose
Loving me
In a way that only
A night watcher could

Parks,
Libraries,
Your room,
A lake.

These are the places in your life where society does not expect you to spend money. You simply go there to be.

You remind me of glass,
your laugh a clear clink of shimmering crystal,
your heart filled with scraping shards.
Thank you for reminding me,
that people too can break,
and mirrors can hold memories.
