Because

Because the imprint of her lips stayed in his head.

Because he loved pushing back her curtain of hair while talking to her.

Because she could roll a joint more perfect than any of the guys.

Because of that look on her face when she inhaled.

Because he couldn’t get the smell of her out of his senses.

Because she could lose herself so completely in the music.

Because she looked to the darkness to cover her tears.

Because of how her kohl always smudged below her eyes.

Because he always wanted her head on HIS shoulder.

Because behind that smile, there was a broken girl he was itching to mend.
