themes: memories, nostalgia, heartbreak

whispered confessions that still linger

all these years after we've said goodbye

my memories of you are ten feet under

because i can't bare to let them go

fading remnants are the only proof

that our eyes ever met across the room

i would rather bottle the sahara

than feel the pain of losing you

every piercing glance slipping through

my fingertips can't hold you tight enough

as she kisses the top of your head

i lay alone bitten by the october air

the only thing i can do tonight is

recount the words that you poured out

every letter dusted onto my skin

remembering that you meant it all
