Mfenweek - Soulmate

mfenweek - soulmate

Somebody in my class had a tattoo of a semi colon and I’m just thinking. Why couldn’t that be him. Why couldn’t he have chosen to keep his life going.

And the bathroom stall I’m in smells like his favorite cologne. I cant escape it. I miss him so much sometimes it hurts.
