En the beginning's falsehood, a soul astray,
He shared his nights with another, hearts led astray.
Series watched with another, a tale untold,
Deception woven in the stories that enfold.
May's end brought us together, a June so bright,
Yet beneath the surface, shadows took flight.
All that glitters, not gold, I came to see,
In this web of deceit that entrapped you and me.
Speaking of her ignites anxiety's fire,
In his upbringing, a lesson dire,
Not taught that one nail can't free another,
In a house where truth was smothered.
No innocence pure, I admit my part,
Playing with fire, I knew it from the start.
Into the volcano, I dove with no care,
Knowing its flames could only ensnare.
Before slumber claims me, his voice I hear,
"High to Saturn, we'll journey without fear."
Planning to escape to distant skies,
Where our energy as stardust flies.
Yet I confess, mistakes were sown,
A tale of errors, both of us have known.
Clumsy hands break all they touch,
A metaphor for the love that meant so much.
Selflessness masquerades as love today,
"I love you" weakened, its strength decayed.
My wish was simple, to match my devotion,
Yours to mine, a reciprocal emotion.
Expression falters, truth often veiled,
Deceptive words and stories curtailed.
But mark my words, love never ceased,
From inception till now, it hasn't released.
Age might be a factor, youth's lack of grace,
Or maturity's absence, in love's chase.
Could I reverse time, a wish so keen,
To never cross paths, erase where we've been.
Loving you shouldn't demand a cost,
A mutual bond, not forever lost.
Perhaps you've moved on, my name erased,
In a new story, a fresh path retraced.
Still, as sleep takes hold, your words resound,
"Never leave me," the echo profound.
If time rewound, those three words I'd say,
Unspoken affection finding its way.
At the same hour, on the same day,
To our meeting spot, I find my way.
Should you pass by, a simple "hi" to convey,
A hopeful heart lingers, come what may.
