just so you know
i just want you to know
that it's 9:36 pm and i miss you
and the way your smile lights up a room
and the way you wrapped your hand around mine,
grasping my fingers with yours like they're the door from the Titanic and you're Rose
"what are you doing? there's room for jack!" you screamed while the credits rolled down the screen and the tears rolled down my face
just like they are now
now it's 10:02 pm and i still miss you
and the way you laughed while i tried to hit the golf ball
and failed miserably.
and the way you stuttered when you asked me out for the first time
"d-d-do you want to grab lunch sometime?"
and i said that i agreed for the food but we both know i said yes because of you
somehow it's 11:29 pm and i miss you more than ever
and the way you whispered those three little words in my ear
and the way you held me and belted out that one john legend song
because "All of Me" wants all of you back into my life
all of a sudden it's 2:34 in the morning and i miss you more than you could know
and the way your eyes glowed when you looked at me
when you'd stand a little taller and flex just to try and show off
when you tried to share your best self with me
but also when you opened up your worst self and let me in
and i so desperately want to be back in
it's 3:56 am and i miss you.
