her

Do you still have the letters I gave you?

I put mine away.

Threw those words

into the crevice of my mind-

hoping

just wishing-

I could forget about you.

I saw you in every part of him.

Is that what you want me to say?

He had eyes like you

yet yours were softer,

sweeter,

probably because you actually loved me.

I wouldn’t dare say that aloud.

Maybe that’s why

I lost you in the first place
