him

his smile
his smile so wide
it makes me smile
his eyes so beautiful 
it makes my heart heavy
i wish he couldve been mine
but its all just a dream
my weary eyes dread the sight of him
one glimpse of those eyes 
and my legs tremble
i begin to speak but i fumble
i fumble so hard i fall
fall into a pool of tears
that he wiped
i wish we hadnt this distance between us
i wish he was here as i write
