i wish i had another life

because in this one
i cannot be with you

i wish i had another life
to give you

i wish i had one more chance
to make you happy

warm feelings

someone messages me
when I am pretending to be offline

force of habit

remember the idyllic day
of last summer
that we picked berries
right off the trees
and shared the warm, colorful
squishy bursts
by the lake

why am i asking you to remember
when the last time you answered me
was six months ago

silence

do I even have the right to anger
when we have been parted for ages

 
who does it matter
what i feel about you
when you are silent

intolerable

some of these days
i just seem to bear so that
at 430 i can go home and bawl
instead of wiping silent tears
in the cubicle

outdated medicines

once upon a time
i drank coffee
to stay up all night

now i just think about you

hello?

i thought you said
we would remain friends?
