you were so much more than
something i loved
i loved a lot of things
sunsets, flowers, early walks,
and late night conversations
i loved thick summer air and
catchy pop punk songs
you were much more than
something that just
brought me temporary joy
so much more than just
another crack in the sidewalk
you were the light of my life
the air in my lungs
my reason to wake up in the morning
and my reason to fall asleep in the evening
i was in love with you,
the idea of you, the thought of you
i was in love with your every flaw, every scar.
i was just falling in love
more and more everyday
and i still,
am
