'how can i love when im afraid to fall?' -christina perri

(dedicated to ArtemisEtoile for helping me edit!!!!!! x)

-

i walk in to greet the white concrete walls of the airport,

and bid farewell to green eyes and a heartbeat, when

all i wanted to do was the opposite.

in one hand i hold my luggage

while in the other i grip my heart with tense fingers,

drowned in the fear of losing it, and you, once more.

i'll be gone with the wind,

but i'll be back by the breeze.

please wait for me

please let our love be.

you kiss my cheek one more time,

kiss my tears one more time,

kiss my lips one more time.

you tell me, 'don't cry,' with eyes as big as the moon,

all i could do in response was nod my head, with
waterfalls on my cheeks.

and off i go, flying far, far away

from dimples, cheeks, eyes, and a hundred feelings.

please,
don't give up
on me.
