You were the sun

I looked up to you

As you would shine your light on me

The slivers of false hope I held onto

You were once the light in my life

Now you’re a black hole

I listen to music 

On the bus 

With my teal earbuds. 

The songs 

Do not drown out the noise 

Do you remember the time

that you and I

spent in front of the TV?

We watched Disney cartoons

and the world around us

stopped.

I remember 

when nothing else mattered

and we could just be.
