This is for my lovely reviewer, a random kid :) I hope you like it!

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry, you don't know how lovely you are.
Her eyes are dark, so dark that you can almost see your reflection in them.
"Ally?" Your voice is timid and shy and you hate yourself a little bit more for it as you tentatively take a step forward.
The girl shakes herself and looks at you, "How could you?"
I had to find you, tell you I need you, tell you I set you apart. Tell me your secrets, ask me your questions, oh let's go back to the start.
"I'm sorry. God, Ally, I'm so sorry." You reach out a hand to touch her, but she jerks away and looks at you. The tears sliding down her cheeks almost break you.
"I thought you loved me. You said you wouldn't hurt me. You promised!" Each word is punctuated with a tiny fist hitting your chest. Physically, it doesn't phase you, but each blow is like a blow straight to your heart. The betrayal in her expression is even worse.
Nobody said it was easy, it is such a shame for us to part. Nobody said it was easy, no one ever said it would be this hard.
She collapses and sobs against your shirt, her head buried in your shoulder as her entire body shakes. You wrap your arms around her and close your eyes, "I know, Alls. I know." You can't do anything as she falls apart. So you just hold her as tight as you can and whisper your apologies over and over again.
But it's not enough. You know that. You just hope she can forgive you. Eventually.
I was just guessing at numbers and figures, pulling the puzzles apart. Questions of science, science and progress, do not speak as loud as my heart. Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me, oh in a rush to the start. Running in circles, chasing up tails, coming back as we are.
