When loving someone, we sometimes get lost
I went from someone you wanted
To someone you resented
Because love has the power to change us

And now I realize that I miss my old self
The one you loved before becoming this empty shell
And now I realize I must become that self again
Change for the better so that I will keep sane

And now I realize that you miss that old self too
But you still love me like I love you
And that has made all the difference
That you kept holding my hand while I fixed myself
And become once again the girl you deserve

A Year After

the first few months when
we started dating
you told me
that I seem aloof
and I told you that
I don't believe in
forever

for everything
eventually
falls
apart

but for every problem
we resolved
for every fight
we went through
there are times
we came out strong
and times
we came out doubtful
as if this is even going to
last

and we find out that
we can
and here we are
a year after
*still
loving
each other

how lucky I am that I (have)
(the) person
I love (most)
someone who makes me feel (beautiful)
and sees me with honest *(eyes)

Stay

You gave me your heart and I threw it away,
You said you’d do anything to make me stay.
Your feelings for me remained true,
While I loved another and didn’t care for you.

Your sweet kisses on my cheek,
Your soft lips now I seek.
The lips I took for granted,
Because by another I was enchanted.

But who knew that I would fall?
For the sweet memories I now recall.
And now you’re gone, I’m lost,
To bring you back I’d pay the cost.

Your love like flames, now extinguished,
Your unwavering love now finished.
You gave me your heart and I threw it away,
I give you mine now to make you stay.

Angel

Fleeting glances from across the room,
That is how our love began to bloom.
And yet, it remains the same,
It is my heart that you need to tame.

Promising love found in June,
May I ask dear, will it end so soon?
It all seemed perfect, yet not quite,
What is it that keeps you in my sight?

Many adversaries in our ways,
Will we ever find our place?
Do not be the first to give up, dear,
Everything in the end will be clear.

And if you do not return my affection,
I will still forever give my devotion.
You are the reason behind my life’s mirth,
You are my angel on Earth.

Timeworn Sentiment

His eyes were brown,
And they held something warm.
I stare into them
And I can’t let him take blame.

Something we called love,
Something I can’t have.
Warm love like a candle lit,
Flames gentle, the wind can’t beat.

But sudden coldness attacked,
Bringing innocent souls into the dark.
Replacing warm love with grief,
Grief so great, it drove us to a cliff.

Still, my love remains true to you,
Take my heart and soul too.
No one can ever replace,
My love still undying chaste.
Live your life with bliss,
Your smile forever I will miss.

As Stars Shine Above

We had started our love as a friendship,
That turned into relish worship.
I hoped for your love that I’d never earn,
I fell for your friendly concern.

My amorousness for your pretty face,
Will never be forgotten by age.
No words can account for my affection,
Or for my appreciation.

This is no more an infatuation,
This is true adoration.
My love for you will never fade away,
It will never go astray.

For years, for ever I will stay with you,
Won’t leave you for a day or two.
Even though you do not know of my love,
I’ll love you as stars shine above.
