Your lips are a soft landing when mine needed a place to stay and maybe I believed in spaceships and moon dust because you are out of this world. I always like the way your smile stretched on for days and the moon has craters like you have flaws
and I'm falling every fucking time. I wanna know if you still stare at the moon pretending it's a pearl you wanted to pluck out of the sky for me because baby I swear I won't fall
back to earth. Just please don't hook pinky fingers with mine and promise forever because I believe in stars falling out of the sky leaving me with a black hole in my chest when you walk away. I'm not lonely I just hate the sound of an empty room at 2:05am, fill the void with that familiar sound of a full scale laugh booming like thunder and hush with the calming sound of July rain crying on your doorstep.Most of all I want to sleep at night and not hear the rustling of trees outside my window because they remind me of crumpling paper and me writing a boy I'm trying to forget back into existence.
Sorry this is not a chapter but I found this cute poem that shows how the cover works with the story. Starting next week (saturday) I'm going to try to start frequently start updating.☺️
