dear you,

you are not forgotten. the clouds drift across the sky and you watch them, nothing quite solid forming in your mouth yet. there is nothing to say. there are days for that. do not worry.

being alone is easy. you know the freedom in running away...until you walk back. because things don't change how you would like them to. you do the wrong things. say the wrong things. nothing works out. it's easier when there's nothing to say. 

thunder shakes the earth tonight, but the rain does not
                                                                                                   fall. 

you know the weight of not letting go. and trying but unable to. some things stick like melted marshmallows and you can not get them off. 

hey.
you're still loved.

when you have nothing to say. when you use all the wrong words. when you cannot even form a simple sentence and trip over your words.

you're still loved.

when you assume the wrong things. when you think someone misses you but they don't. when you realize you aren't as important to someone as you once thought. 

y o u  a r e  s t i l l  l o v e d. 

when you run until your lungs burst. when you are a coward. when you can't tell someone you're sorry. when you yell. when the storm is heavy. when you're angry. when you leave. 
when you feel like you've fallen from grace.

hey.
you're still loved. 
even when you don't feel like you are. 

His love is over. it's underneath. it's inside. it's in between. 

you know who i am.
