The minutes
seem endless
as they tick by
softly, slowly, painfully.
I shift restlessly, watching that clock.
It seems that time cannot go fast enough;
and yet it went too far, too fast, before I knew it.

One moment, you were there by my side;
The next, you were simply a memory;
a lingering shell
like the ghost
of a kiss
on the
Cheek.
I don't think this poem needs much explanation. *Smiles grimly*

This is gorgeous. I envy your ability to convey emotion; this is dripping with feeling.

That didn't come out right, but I don't know how to say it any better.

ANYWAYS.

I love it.

I wish I could make it so that this poem had no reason to exist, but...I can't, and I don't know that you'd want me to.

*hugs tightly*

I don't know what I can say to you that will help. I feel like my Al...I'm totally clueless, and I don't want to do something stupid, but I'm sure I will in the end...I just want to make you feel better.

I'm getting off topic. I hate how you hurt, but I love the way you find creativity and inspiration in it.

I told you, you're strong. You wouldn't be able to do that if you weren't.

I love you. Please don't forget it. <3
