“As we wake up in your room, your face is the first thing I see. The first time I’d seen love, and the last I’ll ever need.”

“Hold my hand, darling. Let me guide the way. If I give you a tour of my mind, will you promise to stay?”

“And one day it’ll all be so much easier. I’ll wake up next to the love of my life in the house of my dreams and all my troubles will finally make sense.”

“And here I am, waiting by the phone. Waiting for that call or text saying that you miss me. Waiting for my phone to light up with the numbers I etched in the back of my brain when I deleted your contact. Waiting to hear your voice. It’s easy not to miss you when it’s 10 am and I’m out with my friends but it’s 10 pm. It’s 10 pm and I miss you.”
