it's been days

it’s been days

he's alone in the dark most of these days

it would drive anyone mad but the rage he feels keeps him going

his heart is in ruins, tattered and torn it aches with the words that were thrown

but his stubbornness is enough to keep him standing still

his soul is screaming, screaming for her

he closes his eyes and can almost smell the sweet scent of her existence

it’s been 3 days and 6 hours

she counts the days, the hours, the minutes that she is not by his side

she remembers him and her cheeks are wet with tears

no! 

she will not give in, she won't be the one to give in first again

but his smile... 

no!

but the way his hair falls over his eyes, 

no!

but the way his arms wrap around her body and make her feel oh so small and safe… 

she’s picking up the phone with a bitter smile

her pride is nothing compared to her need for him

she thinks herself a fool, but as she hears the ringing her heart beats faster

she feels relief

he feels relief
