Perfect words pop into his head.
Only, a little too late.
Why did he ruin the best thing in the world?
FEAR....
He never felt such blood-pumping love before.
So, he ran.
And she ran.
But, now, she's gone and
he desperately needs to feel her heartbeat again.
Now his words flow on paper,
Again, pretending to be a writer,
When pen meets paper only sometimes.
But she writes out words beautifully,
And practices her art.
Yet, still, nowhere near perfection.
Perfection, only in his eyes.
Some people only want what they can't have.
So, he pens out something more beautiful than his past.
Why is he so clever NOW?
Why couldn't he be like this for her then?
The one that got away....
So these words pour out of his eyes,
and his fingers bleed such a beautiful piece.
Bt he just can't shake her memory.

I can't relate to this as this has never happened to me before, still I can understand how some will relate here. Last line, ''Bt he just can't shake...'', is it not meant to be ''but he...''? A nice write and a good read too.
