can we have conversation- a conversation about what love is? A Noun: an intense feeling of deep affection; fondness; tenderness; warmth; intimacy…the list goes on so surely we’re on the same page now.
why can’t we love what is & not love what could be ‘cause why am i now stuck with a lot of information about a person i lost due to their own condemnation?
ever been so frustrated with someone you wish you could give them the right answers? but that wouldn’t do us any good so now the part i hate the most is our interactions because you refuse to learn & grow.
undoubtedly the start of nothing & i really couldn’t see you coming, now we’re stuck in a sadistic loop in this terrible script that’s filled to the brim with what if’s & could’ve’s.
in a world full of mistrust & lust, being loved by you would make so much sense but i’m scared for what that could mean for me since you don’t have a good track record for loving yourself…so i’m taking back what i said, all i actually want is to just be freed from you.

in your eyes i saw a sea of endless blues,
& foolishly thought our skies would merge in perfect hues.
i offered it all, a heart with an open door,
yet i found myself alone upon the shore.

you took my hand then let it slip away with ease,
that fleeting touch really brought me to my knees.
unrequited love is a bad religion ‘cause it’s nothing but a one man cult,
might as well leave the cyanide you poured into my cup because i can’t believe i took such an insult.

beneath the sun’s warm & golden light,
in summer’s bliss our spirits took flight,
with laughter shared & hearts entwined,
a feeling rare, so pure, so refined.

in summer’s heat we were drawn so near,
but in autumn’s chill it’s crystal clear,
just like a flame that quickly fades,
in memory it all cascades.

like the waves upon the shore,
our summer’s fire, we’ll explore no more,
alas, in sweet memories we’ll always find,
a summer’s tale, forever entwined.
