8 months and counting(December)

it was you who told me that time
couldn't change us. that even years
apart would bring us closer together.  
it's been 8 months and i've never
believed you less. i can't guarantee
anything, but i know that as this
number of days and months increases,
we are growing colder and falling further
apart. 8 months. since i've seen you in
the flesh. since i've heard your voice
and watched crows feet plant themselves
around your eyes as you laughed at my
dumb jokes. days have been ticking away
for so long, as new mornings give birth to
the sun. we did all that we could to smash
hourglasses together. little did we know,
we were only getting cut by the broken
pieces. and little did we know, we were
only wasting sand each time we tried to
stop each other from bleeding.
