I FEEL SORT OF

T E M P O R A R Y

ABOUT MYSELF.

.

at some point i fall asleep

waking up with warmth beside me.

at first i have no desire to look

although it's comforting

to not be alone.

i open my eyes,

sunlight shimmering

through the blinds,

illuminating the paleness of

liam's skin.

the flowers slowly wilting.

i smile sadly.

a shriveled up petal had fallen onto

my chest.

i pick it up between my fingertips

what does this represent,

to me?

my life?

my heart?

i drop it down as he stirs quietly.

"zayn told me what happened."

his voice is choked with sleep.

"you're very warm."

he says, a soft smile lingers

on his lips.

i don't say anything.

but fond memories dance around my

head of max and i

like this.

talking for hours.

whether tears were staining or face

or smiles were hurting our cheeks.

it feels so good.

to have something that you've been deprived of

for so long.

.

we lay like this for a while.

silence

is

sometimes

fulfilling.

"you're the only person

who's been my best

friend before."

liam whispers softly,

we had moved,

now were each on our side,

facing each other.

this causes me to smile,

i'm

glad

i

can

make

others

happy.
