Stranded

Someone please find me. Being stranded is no fun. I'm lost and the sky is closing in. I lack the patience to stand here and wait for you. In due time, all memories will be forgotten and all loves will be lost. I'll write your name in the sand over and over so when my dead body is found, they know who was last on my mind before the clouds took me. Let me rain on you. I bet you never felt so alive during a thunderstorm. The thunder booming is my voice cracking. My watchful eye blinks when the lighting strikes. The tears we cried together fall to the ground and I watch you put on up your umbrella. You hate the rain.

I need the rain. Being stranded is no fun. I need to fall asleep in your eyes. Glare at me again so I can pull those olive irises over me to keep me warm. Calm me down. Grab my heart and pull it out. Squeeze it dry and leave it on the ground to bathe in this oyster that is our world. Our world. Our world. Pick at my brain. Take what you please and leave in the junk. I want you to treasure my favorite thoughts and make them your own. Make me your puppet. I'll do what you please as long as the Hell still thrives underneath. You'll remain in the stars, the flowers, and trees. Only your life can survive.

My mind is pacing. Being stranded is no fun. All I think about is the things farthest away. I hope you read this one day and know I'm sincere. My fingers are trembling and my mouth is dry. The pen's ink is low and my last breath is near. I could never get my point across no matter how hard I try. Love is a sickness and this is why I must die. Time and time again, I'm captured in the moment. I'll remain in this one forever and I'll read this in heaven over and over until you join me. So we can sit on a cloud and kick our swinging feet together. Put my hand in yours and energy will thrive. Our hearts beat faster and everything freezes. Our minds slow up and everything freezes. We first lock eyes and everything freezes.Our lips first meet and everything freezes.

...

My last breath is amongst me finally. I'll cherish it and try to make it last forever hoping that you will find me before I let it go. Before I let it go. Before I let it go. Before I let it go, I saw your face one last time and I realized that before I die, I just wanted to say I love you. Now your not around and I'll write in the clouds, the same way I did in the sand.
