you're asleep but i lay awake you're dreaming with your eyes closed while i dream with eyes wide open about our past all that we were the everything i gave the nothing we became
it's been three years, a thousand tears, at least a dozen apologies, and too many late night discussions to count, but i still find myself wondering, why did you do it? and how?
he smiles i tell myself that it's just a smile it shouldn't make me want to kiss him it shouldn't give me butterflies it shouldn't make me fall deeper in love but it does everytime he smiles
When I don't laugh at your joke about cancer, I'm thinking of a beautiful girl who lost a wonderful mother. When I don't laugh at your joke about domestic abuse, I'm thinking of the bruises that my best friend brings home. When I don't laugh at your joke about people with different colored skin, I'm thinking of the toughest boy I know brought to tears because of judgments made based on his race.

He broke my heart, and now I'm giving him the chance to break it again. I don't know if that's true love or stupidity. Format:SecretlyBrokenAndSilentlyHoping
