Girl in Luv

We were misfits. We were the puzzle that took hours to put together only to realize there was a missing piece.

I gave myself over to the loss, the emotions, the complete devastation, so I could remember this feeling, because I’d never put myself in the position to let it happen again. Then I closed the door and locked my heart, all in the same turn of a handle.

But when I sleep, in those moments when I lose control of my thoughts, I know I’ll be here again, sitting at this table. In my nightmares, I’ll walk out the door, just like I’m about to do.

In my dreams, I’ll still be in that bed with you.
