This poem was written by haxily and it truly encompasses how Erik feels about Trystan. It shows what he was trying to relay to Kihanna when he was telling her off. Thank you so much haxily!!

I wondered what you didn't see in her. I saw the way her lips bloomed into this life altering smile. How she never let anyone close to her, like she was protecting her heart even though it had already been torn apart. She looked me in the eyes and I swear I saw an entire universe through her glimmering pupils. I felt earthquakes inside myself when she said my name. I can't live without her the way anyone can't live without a liver. She's beautiful when she's tired and even when she looks like she can no longer carry the bags under her eyes.
I miss her when I'm with her and I miss her when I'm not. She's so fierce and she never hides behind anyone. She has so much love inside her, I can tell because when she talks about her mother, she starts to give off light. She touched me one time and my bruises weren't tender anymore, and all my wounds closed up. Sometimes she smiles this genuine smile, and it disappears as soon as I blink. Her laugh helps me breathe when my lungs are giving up. I look at her, stars on her skin, the milky way in her eyes, and I swear she's part of the sky.
She tucks all her feelings behind her ear and I love her for it. When someone asked me for my address I almost said her name. When she's sad she still smiles with teeth. When she's happy bird start to sing. I go home and cry about her in the shower. You asked me why I loved her and I asked you why you didn't.
