my heart ran away. by ~Amertie:iconAmertie:



the sky is cold when i tell you that i don't have a heart.

'of course you do,' you tell me. 'you have to.'

but i don't. and you spent so many minutes of that day trying to find my heartbeat, your warm fingers on my icy wrists, searching and searching for something you couldn't find.

and it hurts that even you couldn't prove me wrong.

.

i drew a chalk heart on my concrete drive way and pretended it replaced my missing one.

but it was lopsided and terrible. the rain ended up washing it away in the end, and i could only stand there in the rain and watch as my messy scribbles faded away.

.

i wrote my heart a letter, asking it if it missed me.

the reply said i'm sorry, but i just can't miss you. i just can't.

i hated that i understood why.

"I slept away last night... It took me away from the harsh visions of reality.

And in my dreams, were all my wishes and hopes came true."

damn, your stuff is always so good. i'm looking for the special words you used to put such feeling in, and paint such a picture, but i can't find them. i think i'm chalking it up to magic. seriously.
