Reasons To Leave: -When they stop laughing at your jokes -When they act like comforting you is a chore -When staying is too heavy for you -When staying is too heavy for them -When you stop holding hands -When they won't look you in the eye -When they sleep with their back towards you -When they sleep in a different room -When "I love you" starts to hurt -When you are afraid to ask them things -When you dread a text from them -When they dig at your soft spots; your insecurities -When their mouth tastes like someone else -When you wish they tasted like someone else -When your sheets smell like somebody else -When they don't kiss you good-morning -When they don't kiss you good-night -When they won't kiss you at all

I've only ever known happiness in forms of you. I'd never recognize it in someone new.

Then I saw her kiss you on those lips that I wished I could taste. Yeah, it hurt like a knife to the chest. I always thought your smile was to die for, just not like that.

The past four months without you have gone by faster than I thought they would. I hope the next four are just the same, just with a little more snow.

I let you into my chest. Just because you're gone, doesn't mean you'll ever leave.

Follow me into the ocean, maybe we could be beautiful again. Maybe we'll find things at the bottom that we could never find here.

I am stuffing sunflower petals into my mouth to put some of the light that you and I both need inside of my stomach, and if it was there, would you want to keep me?
