The End of the Summer

I try not to smile for too long. I try not to stare. I try not to fantasize.

I try not to be affected.

Maybe I'll be able to forget this foolish feeling when you go away. If you go away. I guess that's the only good thing about the end of the Summer.

It's not love. It can't be love. I wouldn't know how to handle it.

Without You

You are my skin. You are my soul.

I have learned to live with you, to depend on you. I'm not sure I can deal with the loss. In fact, I'm sure I can't.

Loneliness peels my skin and pierces my soul. It hurts; make it stop.

Without you, I'm... dying?

Birthday Happiness

I'd pay any price just to see you as happy as you were last night. Dancing like there was no tomorrow.

Happy birthday, Mum.
