salt

sweat fills my palms and tears cloud my sight.
the rain drops on my windshield are identical to the 
salt water that soaks my sweatshirt sleeve.
you intoxicate my every thought.
my heart beats uncontrollably 
every.
single.
time.
i hear your name.

we hear the music in our hearts 

and sometimes i forget how to breathe.

i find myself in you and lose it all at once.
they say drugs are bad 

but so are kisses from boys who don't love you.

Why is it so hard to say?
there's more salt in my veins than the entire ocean 
you are exactly the poem i craved to write 

but i refuse to search through trash in hopes of finding a diamond.

  8. I love that you crossed out the line "why is it so hard to say" very powerful. I wish I could say and express everything I felt.
