Nothing happened 

The ocean didn’t dry 

The land didn’t slide 

The sun didn’t burn out 

All the bridges didn’t collapse 

There were no spontaneous combustions 

Nothing stopped 

When I lost you 

But 

My 

Heart 

Milliseconds feel like eternities 

Would it ever beat again 

Will I ever breathe again 

If you’re not there catching every breath 

Hanging on to every single word 

With wide eyes 

And a freckled nose 

And a subtle smile 

Patiently waiting 

For me to get to the part where 

I love you 

So you can say you’re proud of me 

And you love me too

And now I’ve lost you 

Forever …

Forever. 

…

Forever ?
