6:56 AM
You called it love,
When my voice was your favorite song
And you smiled in your sleep.
When you traced my skin with your lips and on purpose
You'd get lost.
We called it love,
When your touch sent fire through my veins
And we kissed until our lips burned .
When it felt like summer
All the time.
She called it love,
When you spit out drunken words
And regretted it all in the morning.
When you begged for her forgiveness
But it just wasn't there to give.
I don't know what to call it,
When my bones are begging for your trust
And my brain is terrified.
When my heart still needs you
To breathe
