only you

she might be in the other room

but she's not

she might greet me when i come home

but she won't

where is she?

where are you?

i miss her


i wish i could give you things

one only thinks of giving someone

when it's too late

if i could hold you again

i would

if i could kiss you again 

i would

if i could hug you again

i might never let go

but

if i could go back

i wouldn't

cause i don't miss how things were

i don't miss the cruel and sad times

i don't wish to see us miserable again

i only miss who you were

i only miss everything about you

i only miss you

Sweet dreams...

I woke up in the morning and forgot that you were gone for, in my memory, you just fell asleep...


Years ago feel like yesterday

Like hours of sleep feel like minutes passed


It feels like I may have dreamt her... for everything about her was perfect.

The Thought and The Heart

It's not just the present,

it's having the present in the present,

it's what you did to get it and what it means to have it before my very eyes

(right now)

what it means to want when there was no means

and then to receive when I didn't expect to

--and from you, you and you--

that's what makes it more than a present but a true gift!

At times like this,

when things aren't glowing as brightly as we are

and all around us looks the same,

when we seem to be in the same place as we were yesterday,

your gift has done things that I would have never known.

It is something I did not expect.

The action of you doing something different

and, of all times, right now,

has changed the repetition of the past

(a past in which our world did not turn and time did not pass)

what you have done has moved me

(we once were invisible beings)

now you have touched me...

within my tears that are like the sea

~the thought and the heart~

I will never forget.

Love,

Kayla ♡
