Broken Promises

2. Shattered Records and Broken Tunes

Today, I read our old messages.

I smiled slightly as the tears rolled down my cheeks.

But it was a smile filled with shattered records and broken tunes.

You changed my life in the blink of an eye, without having to even lift an arm.

I really believe meeting you was fate.

And falling in love with you was destiny.

I knew you were the one just by being with you.

Sometimes, I looked at you, and wondered how I got to be so damn lucky.

And everything I've never done, I wanted to do with you.

But you're not here anymore.

And it sucks.

I didn't even realize that it was night now.

I don't notice much, nowadays.

I look up to the stars and talk to you.

Tell you how much you mean to me and how much I miss you.

What I wouldn't give to hear your voice talk back.

I miss your voice.

Your voice was as beautiful as a crystal clear lake.

I miss your laugh.

Your laugh was the color of the sky right before the sun rises.

I miss your smile.

Your eyes, your lips, and your spirit all at once smiled and everytime, I fell a little deeper.

I'm still falling.

But this time, it hurts.

Because you're not here with me.

And I can't be up there with you.
