Cool, crisp sheets, an unfolding night with warm scents of you left behind in the morning light.

Don’t give me those blue eyes please, I’ve already given up on our dreams. Nothing can bring back the times where only memories reside.

Your name is stifled in my throat rising and falling with every breath. I keep you in silence no longer saying a word. Holding you there cautiously for the sake of your peace, speaking only from the beat in my chest.

We all remember that moment in time. After that nothing was ever the same. We've been clinging one or the other yet all it causes is pain.
