​

It was just the normal size, maybe smaller than the rest

But when you walked in through the door it nearly burst out of my chest

I feared my rushed response would betray my purity

So I stiffened my spine to keep from falling to my knees

Somehow you thought that I might be receptive to your pain

As you told me of your dad and how you wished that he had stayed

I thought you were so cool, so aesthetic and advanced

So I told myself that if you asked, I’d say “I’ll take a chance”

Photos on my phone and wall freeze the moments that we chose

To reveal and to remember all the things we loved the most

All the times we spent together distilled into memories

So I tried to look you up to see what happened in between

Maybe you are out there somewhere, probably not thinking of me

But for the person I knew before – know I’m feeling you fondly

I would not be who I am if not for the love that we shared

So in case you wonder ever – there still is someone who cares
