#missing him lately

[vi3w-monst3rr]

But how long, how long can we play this way?

[wordsflowfromveins]

Your name was spoken across an empty space today. My heart had never leapt that high; I still can't seem to find it inside my chest. My hands still shivered the way I did the first night you ever hugged me. The first night your chest pressed against mine. When my head found a place against you and your cheek pressed against my mousy curls. 

And so I stood there, and let myself remember. Not wanting to forget. I let your name echo in my ears.  Let each letter roll across my tongue, Let each syllable scrape against my teeth, and the entirety of the name press against my lips, the way I wished, wished so many times you would press yours lips against mine. 

I spent the entire day with your name scorching my mouth, your green eyes reflecting in every surface. Memories rushing through me. And my heart outside my chest, searching for yours.
