#sad love quote
My face has faded from your eyes, my name no longer sits at the back of your throat. Our stories have become memories left to be forgotten. I can’t live with it. Your touch still haunts this skin like a home, still sends shivers down my spine like a ghost. Your words sleep in my ears, your echo of a voice lulls me to tears. I feel you living in me, walking from heart to head. You’ve left your mark on me, planted your seeds and now they’re blooming into bruises. Darling, loving you was heaven. Leaving you was hell. We were once lovers with hope in our hands, now we are strangers with nothing to tell.

I use to have a home in your heart, now the only place I have is in your past.

I tasted forever on your tongue, a lie wrapped in lust. A promise never intended to be kept. It faded into a facade, hid behind the hurt I let sit in my throat. You tied pretty pledges on my wrists, wrote your vows on my skin. You let the hope sink in. Let the false future we made run through my thoughts. My heart began to beat for you, drowned in the noise was the breaking. You held me with careless hands, covered your deceit in gold. Our love was a myth to you. A chapter in a book of fiction. A run on sentence begging to end. To you, I was a face you’d forget, a name left in bed. To you, a story swallowed down. A moment meant for a memory. An ending with open arms. To you, I was borrowed time.

you give me your body willingly, but i want more than just the shell of you. you hide behind walls you’ve built in your bones. you’ve settled your secrets into the cracks, you built a bridge just to burn it down. you only let love in halfway, keep a safe distance between the skin and soul. you’ve laid chest to chest, but never had your heart face another. don’t you crave to spill your sorrow? you are more than a carcass gone cold, more than silence in sheets. you say you are mine but there’s an absence in your mind. you are half human, a heartbreak waiting to happen. i stand staring through the windows of your temple, praying you’ll let me in. because god knows, there’s more to love within.
When you walked away, you left the door open. And that’s when he walked through, a boy of beauty. A light in the dark, an angel with hidden wings. He swept through the gates and made a home in my heart. He wiped away the dust, settled in and filled the cracks, he painted me gold. It’s as though he’s owned it all this time, meant to find the forest of his future. Now he’s planting seeds, and we are growing together. Vines intertwined, petals blooming, we are blessed by the sun. Oh darling, you were my first, but never the one.
Ripped at the seams when you first met me, you were convinced your kisses could stitch this scarred skin together. But it only burnt me to be loved with warmth. A shell of a soul, a glass half empty heart. I do not take love easily, and I never accept it fully. So when you held me together as I broke, the blood from the aftermath sunk our ship. I jumped from the sails and couldn’t let you guide me any longer. I was a storm brewing, and sea salt tears interrupted our kisses too often. I could not be the shattered piece that cut you, could not be the one to show you what lives behind stone cold walls. God, you only ever loved me with the sun, only ever touched with rose petal fingers. But I could not be the one to taint the blue sky locked in your eyes. A mind full of dark clouds only brings rain, my love.
