It’s crazy what you could’ve had.
I need this.

I got this note today on facebook from the sister of a friend of mine who was murdered in 2006. I wrote a letter to him after the incident and that’s what she is referring to in this message. I cannot begin to tell you how this made me feel..
Rest in Peace, peace to his [...]

The tears I wept left salt stains.
I took a photo to remember. I took a wet rag to forget.

You give it all, but I want more…

In a relationship,
When things go sour,
Remember,
You are but a fraction
Of what
Could have happened.

How you can afford to pay me mind,
When you can barely balance your sense,
Is a debt I’m sure has gone undefined
At the cost of us being friends.
She asked me why I’d paid these dues
For petty changes, and then I spoke:
To your credit, I’ve found my interests gained
And I am rich because my heart’s been broke.

Even in short, I still long to be more. And if you’re made to be mine, I’ll redefine to be yours.

We will never be the same..
.. we shouldn’t be.
