Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid // Written by @ poppyflowerpoetry via tumblr

Three years later, a new girl sits cross-legged on your bed. 

She tastes like a different flavor of bubblegum than you are used to. 
She opens up a book that you had to read in high school, and a folded picture of us falls out of chapter three. 
Now there are two unfinished stories resting in her lap. 

Inevitably, she asks, and you tell her. 

You say: I dated her a while back. 
You don’t say: Sometimes, when I’m holding you, I imagine the smell of her vanilla perfume. 

You say: She was younger than me. 
You don’t say: The sixteen summers in her bones warmed the eighteen winters my skin had weathered. 

You say: It’s nothing now.
You don’t say: But it was everything then.
