You said you deserve better, and now so do I

Anyways, the best part of us was me
When you got with me, you were a genius
Now without me you have to live life as an idiot

I don't write songs, I write life, I told you that
And you were only fuckin' with my feelings because you didn't know your own

I do miss who I thought you were
And sometimes I'm miserable without you
So it's just like you're still here

Shit

The Same Day- Saturday

I was leaving my house to pick up Efi.

I like Efi, her personality, something about her is intriguing and welcoming.

I don't know where I found the confidence to ask her out to eat, I would be a blind man to ignore how beautiful she is.

Her gorgeous dark skin which she definitely inherited from her mother, her dark eyes that look into your soul and read you like a book, her hair, she's always had different hairstyles over the past 3 years but her natural hair has always been my favorite. Her beautiful pearly white smile, her laugh that can sound like she's gasping for air at times but it never ceases to put a smile on your face. Her body- yea we're going to skip that one because I have a... I have a... I have a...

"GIRLFRIEND!" my conscience yelled

*sigh*

Yea... I have a girlfriend

My phone rang interrupting my thoughts, it was an unknown number.

"Hello?"
"Is this Darren Amos?"
"Yes this is he, how can I help you?"

"I'm Lily, a nurse at Emerald hospital. You are Daphne Rachel Amos's emergency contact. Her neighbor found her unconscious body on the porch"

My heart dropped
"W-what happened, is she going to be ok?"

"She fainted out of malnutrition and dehydration, she also lost a significant amount of weight, she'll be fine but she's been calling your name ever since she woke up"

"I'm on my way, I'll be there soon" I hung up and ran to my car

Mom not again, please not again.
