I Still Love You

in case you let go...

You are not supposed to live in the past they tell me

It is the only place I remember you

Hearing you tell people about the first time you saw me

I fell in love with your voice before your face

Your words were always more than real

Knock-off space-themed chucks without enough bus fare, that was me

Then you pretended you would come back, And abused that privilege as usual

Abusive connections were your life support not mine

When memories become opaque like dreams in the mist

All I know is bitter forgiveness

What do you know about me anyways

I still love you in case you let go

About the Creator

Regan Smith

This is the Bio of what you don't see.

The fire behind the eyes filled with tears.

The empty belly full of laughter.

The drawn out lies created by truth.

Enjoy the madness I find time to put forth non-telapathically...
