Every night before I sleep I always make sure to kiss the hair band you gave me that stays on my wrist always. The item of clothing you gave to me the first time we met still lays next to me and when I struggle so much I hold onto it and nothing else. When I close my eyes it’s only your smile I see and that same smile is what keeps me going, that and the hope I can see it again one day soon. The football boots you signed for me always give me the luck and extra push through my days at work and matches because I know part of you is with me. I make two wishes a day about you and because of you. I listen to your playlist to get me through my car journeys and to stop me from doing anything stupid. I know I’m crazy to want something that you don’t want too but I can still hope and dream for something even close to that to keep me going. Without that, I’d have to give up once and for all.
