❝you have sadness living in places

sadness shouldn't live.❞

there is a lonely hum in my head where

your name used to be.

it's been a year since i've seen your face

but all my heart does is call your name.

i know, soon i'll forget the colour of your eyes

and you'll forget the colour of mine.

but this pain isn't going anywhere.

i still remember the pain your manicured fingers caused

on my cheeks,

and i remember the harsh words you said to me,

i can run, but i can't hide.

i'm okay, but i'm not fine.

when you left, it was like i could finally breathe but

it was suffocating at the same time.

how do i function without you?

you were all i had ever known.

when you left, a part of me died,

but a part of me bloomed.

and then, after you left, i finally found my friends.

they're in my head.
