The sky was a dark sapphire shade, picking at strands of slim grasses and a hollow chest I held dear. The sundown was quiet, the cars flashed by but time stood still for me. I would've imagined you'd be with me in the forest near the white trash Starbucks. You'd twirl me like a reckless ballerina and laugh as I would abruptly fall onto the Earth. Between the gaps of trees we'd skip and as the deers ran in fear we would smile. And smile more brightly each time we synchronized. Yet instead I sat on the grass, alone, feeling more empty than the sea turtles who mistaken plastic for food. I watched the yellow sunlight dim to darkness, nostalgic in a way that fumbled with my broken blood vessels. You never would've felt much for someone who's head was crumpled anyways. The fireworks at the lake, we could've spent together if you felt the same. I wonder if my body would've bursted into those fireworks if you liked me, although I stay dark on the inside instead.I heard humans glow to certain animals yet our eyes don't see it. To me I think I can see you glow. You glow brighter than any burning star, brighter than any breaking of the night, brighter than the yellow street lamps. I could begin to feel the tears stream.
