Fireflies

I would have watched the fireflies with you all night.
Flashing like beacons,
Begging me to surrender.

Could have been

I miss you.
Or maybe,
I miss the thought of you.
The thought of us,
And what we could have been.

Kiss me again,
Warm up my frostbitten lips,
Send heat waves through my body,
Until there’s a flood between my thighs.

I still leave the door unlocked for you,
Even though I know,
Deep down,
You’ll never walk through it.

This is your fault.
You’re the reason I stepped off the edge.

Because right now,
I’m shattered,
My soul crushed into a million pieces,
One for each lie you ever told me.

As if love is some kind of summer camp trust fall,
And I’m starting to lean back.
