Miles Apart by Becca Gordon
these scars on my knees will be here long past the time you have come and gone they will stay into my golden years even when we are miles apart in body and mind
they say drunk words are sober thoughts but no amount of alcoholic “ i love yous ” will make me believe you want me
im content with the idea that you are temporary and while you are my love right now the one I want until time ends i know you probably won ’ t stay
so i soak up the time i have with you i inhale your drunk affirmations like oxygen and i live every day hoping i can love you longer than im expecting
