Words. I can’t seem to find them whenever I write about you. But I will try. I need to so that our souls can start anew. You never loved me. I’m starting to lose my love for you now. But there was a time when I loved you more than words can allow.
A time I’d write your stories down so my heart wouldn’t forget, A time I’d worry over all the people I viewed as threats. Foolish, naive, lost. That I was, looking for love in green orbs That would lie to me. I’d get lost in them and long to be yours.
It’s time to forget. Your smile, your glasses, the ink on your ribs. Yes, it will hurt sometimes, but what I must do to heal is this. The one thing my heart will never forget, though, is your birthday. It’s in spring. When flowers grow, birds sing, and the trees freely sway.
We could have been like the trees. Swaying freely and happily. That is, if you had taken the time to really notice me. But you’re joyful. Well, you certainly will be once you find her. The one you’re searching for. The one who will make your life better.
Here’s my gift for you. Releasing you. Hoping you find true love. Like the love I had for you. A pure, sweet love sent from above. May you live a life of wonder without any wasted time. Happy birthday. From an admirer as bitter as a lime.
Precious, loving time has passed and shall never return Wishing I could stop the fire that continues to burn Yet I still fall in love with the smoky, hopeful flames The warm sparks embrace my tinted heart and call my name
My soul has suffered far too much to get burned once more It has taken seasons for the scars to heal and soar Above everything that made it wail for a long time I would never be theirs, while they would always be mine
However, something within the universe has changed When I think of the flames, I feel joy and feel not pain Fate is on my side as well as the stars, sun, and moon I hope these blooming sentiments haven’t come too soon
I’ve been dreaming, longing, reaching for this for so long There have been dark moments in which I couldn’t be strong But I have my strength, my passion, my fire once again For you are the flames, the one that will stay til the end.
