You fell in love with someone
And called her me
And I became someone.
You continually convinced me otherwise
By counting freckles on my face
By your fingers that would trace
The lines in my palms
By your gentle embrace
Or your smiling cheeks that could flush at my name
But I was your someone
And the problem with someone
is she can be replaced
You weren't my someone.
You were making up my own constellations out of stars
Aimless walks and intentions
Daisies picked and placed in my locker
With explanations of
"Because I could"
Or
"Because of your eyes"
A giggle that caused an eruption of butterflies batting their wings
You were lying to mom and rebellious things
I your millionth
And you my first kiss
You were none other than you and you can't be replaced
Not by new excitement with a charming face
Not by official ties put out on display
Not by standards that are met or commitments that are made
The longing for someone can always be filled
But my aching for you
It never will
