thirty-nine: rough

he came to me
blue and bruised,
I gaped at him, not knowing what to do.
Tears were rolling down his eyes.
His lips were moving.
His eyebrows scrunched.
He looked like he was screaming.
But I, could not hear anything.
All I could do was stare,
As I mimicked the tears that fell
On his blue cheeks
I stood there
scared
Not knowing what to do
As I watched my angel
breakdown before me
He fell to his knees
As I did the same
He covered his face
with his bruised hands
as drips seeped through cracks of it
slowly
i crept
my arms around him
as he placed his face
on my heavy breathing chest
his tears soaked the fabric
of my shirt
his mouth started to move
vibrations from his throat
he was talking
saying something
but I
was lame
and could not hear
a word he would say

yet everything he was trying
to say
reached me

I'm so sorry, hyung, we'll make it through this.

his words formed in my head

and I, in a feeble attempt

could not hear myself

as i uttered

or whispered

ghostly

Jungkook, I love you.

and he caught it
