walking hand in hand down an almost empty street.
we talk about trivial things, i wish to stay like this a bit more.
the sun starting to go down, my tired eyes want to finally rest.
walking hand in hand, heading home.
i hear a laugh that reminds me of yours.
my heart stops, i do too.
walking hand in hand, you don't notice my presence.
caught in a pair of eyes that aren't mine, you can't seem to say goodbye.
a kiss on your cheek, a slight smile on your face.
he closes the door, you look back.
we meet for the first time in months, you've lost what i once gave you.
the stars i once saw in your eyes, they no longer exist.
all i can see is dust at our feets, the sky darker than before.
taking a deep breath, you take a step forward.
i hear your voice for the first time after so long, after wishing every night to listen to our song again.
but it only tears me apart.
i've known for a while.
i am in love with you again.
i know now, you've told me.
you are not.
your words repeat in my mind, a knife in my back.
winter is greeting me with cold arms, but it can't compare to the coldness of your smile.
walking with both of my hands in my pockets, i whisper those words, maybe this way it will be easier to heal my wounds.
"i am in love with someone else."
jk.
