thevirtualhermit:

Do you remember the way you felt

This time last year

All the words we left unsaid

I was in love with you

My heart grew cold from waiting

My eyes began to wander

Over faces and bodies

Within my reach

These hands long to hold

These lips long to kiss

I left my heart in memories of last year

My body keeps marching on.

thevirtualhermit:

Sometimes when I think of you

Even though I’m all alone

In my room

I’ll dive under my blankets

So the walls can’t judge me

For the silly smile

On my face.

thevirtualhermit:

I ought to give fair warning

Before there is no turning back

You’ve reached the edge of the map

Here there be monsters.

The greatest parts of me lie uncharted

Hiding depths that teem

With darkness and creatures unseen.

thevirtualhermit:

There’s no room in this bed

For anyone beside me

There used to be space

But I filled it up

Rather easily

With well-worn books

Camera apparatuses

And vintage magazines

But if you ask very nicely

I’ll find a way

To make you fit.

thevirtualhermit:

At the end

Of a cold and

Weary day

I don’t want

To find comfort

And warmth 

By fireside

In a cozy sweater

While drinking 

Hot tea

I’d rather find

Everything I need

In your arms.

thevirtualhermit:

You might prefer

Crisp autumn

With a thick scarf

About your neck

Hands thrust deep

Into coat pockets

As brisk wind whips

Down city streets

Stirring colorful leaves

But there is springtime

In your smile.
