I feel like sharing this... please don't show nicola, or even tell her of its existence, a longer drawn out version is on its way to her via snail mail, and i'd hate to ruin the surprise.

thank you...

there isn't a single thing about you, that i don't find breathtakingly beautiful.
you leave me somewhere between heartbeats and heartattacks.
an intense picture of glamour in the coldest moments.

we're built like old clocks, steady and still, savouring every second.
intricate inner workings, we are nothing without all our pieces.
yet on the outside we are simple wooden boxes, holding it all together.
the wear and tear of everyday life shows in the scratches and scuffs.
yet, after all this time, we stay true to who we are.

i miss most the moments where it was all falling apart.
mornings spent nursing our hangovers with cigarettes placed between our lips.
under the cold morning sky of blues and greys.
last nights makeup, and the exhaustion in our eyes.

trying our best to stand on two feet, stumbling to put the past behind us.
boxes full of sentiment burn every sunset.
yet, we always end back where we started.
the boys who broke our hearts, the ones who left.
the things we can't change.

in 10 years time who knows where we'll be.
who knows how much time will change us.
all i can promise is that i won't forget.
i won't put out the fire you lit in my soul.

when everything seems wrong.
when the world is getting in the way.
reach for me, through the fog, and i'll pull you through..

always and forever.

love carly.
