Wrinkles in your fingertips, and I see that they are lovely

Sweet tender touch late at night, or is it really morning?

You smile at me, and I smile back

Hoping that this time I won't wake up

That for once you won't fade like always

And that when I sit up in my bed, strangled for air

Choking on hot breaths that aren't mine

That you will still be there

You fade in and out of my daily life

Never staying very long and never again staying at all

I won't see you again, after this time

Because of fate and destiny and all that bullshit you hear about in fairytales

It isn't fair

Never again, only through one-sided moments now but later...not even that

College seems so far away, but it's just a step for you

And I feel so stupid and young, you're gone and I'm here and numb

With only memories of unrequited love, unacted upon love, unknowing love

With only pictures that should've never been taken, they were secrets

With only the recollection of the sound of your laugh, hot and sultry

And your smile when someone told you something that struck your fancy

Or the way your eyes sparkled like marbles in a fishbowl when you laughed

It's over

For Forever

Forever and Always, so jaded and cliche

Just kiss me and kill the world and we can forget it all

I can forget that you never loved me once

And I can forget that it was all a dream

And I can forget that you could care less

That you don't give a shit about me

And that none of this really happened
