I told you I can’t pretend that everything is okay when it isn’t…and you said “it’s fine”. How does that even qualify as an answer? I sent you the poem that is so obviously about you, and you pretended that it never happened, didn’t mention it at all. I don’t want to be wondering if I made the wrong choice. You make me the happiest, but you also hurt...
Words are only painted fire; a look is the fire itself.

Don’t go,
don’t leave me to wait and wonder if she’s the one you want
again.
I want you,
I want breakfasts and movies and Reese’s ice cream, staying under the covers all day long.
You,
and your laugh, the way you wear flannel when it’s 90 degrees, and the v-neck T’s just for me.
I’ll let you make fun of my thumbs every day if only you say she’s...
Do you really think writing on my facebook wall about a candy bar is enough to make this ok? Either don’t kiss my ass at all or start doing a better job. I hate that you’re going to see her. Trust you? That’s not possible in this situation. God, do you know how hard it was for me to ask you not to go, don’t you understand how much it pains me to show insecurity, to show...

I don’t understand. I don’t understand a damn thing. Colin came here and impressed all my friends, gave me a glimpse of what it would be like to date him. He told Thea how much he’s liked me for so long…things that I didn’t even know. He gave me hope. Enough hope that I was ready to move away from Shane and towards him. He asked me to trust him, to stop defining him...
I close my eyes, thinking that there is nothing like an embrace after absence,...

The moment I blinked you slipped away.
A single breath,
one exhale…
and I will never be the same.
What does it mean…
to be gone?
It leaves a faded photograph, a fuzzy memory, a hollowness.
I once held my breath to prove I could hunt with you…
to prove I could become a man like you……did...
