Ohh well 😁
I watch you glow beneath the sun, a light too bright for me to hold. Your laughter—wild, untamed, undone, a story written in pure gold. You speak of him with stars in your eyes, a love so deep, it pulls the tide. I smile, though every word denies the storm I cage, the pain I hide. I stand beside you, steady, strong, a fortress built for someone else. Each glance, each touch, it all feels wrong— yet still, I place my heart on shelves. You never see the way I break, the nights I drown, the air too thin. But love is not what you can take, it’s what you give and give again. So take my silence, take my spine, build your joy upon my bones. If loving means to lose what’s mine, then let me love in quiet tones. For if your world is filled with light, if he can bring the peace you crave, then I will stand within the night, and carve your joy into my grave.
