Him
He appeared like out of nowhere
shy smile, blue eyes, messy hair
felt like I've been waiting for him all year
all my life, eternity, or just one day
I reached out to him, unafraid
offered my heart that was barely beating
he looked after it with great care
like it was the most precious thing
He wrote lyrics just for me
played music for my ears only
right by his side I was finally able to see
I was loved, important, and worth it
When the night came and everyone else left
and I was afraid I'd have to go through it alone
unsure I'd even see the next day
instead of leaving, he chose to walk along
I made it out with him by my side
light in him was enough for us both
finally safe, I turned to him and smiled
only to realize he was gone
