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

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

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.

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.

Your footsteps echoed
Then eerie silence followed
Now I stand alone

I. Winter
We were good friends
But we both knew
We wanted to be more
So we exchanged
Sweet gestures
And thought that it would last
Or maybe that was just me
Because

II. Spring
Spring came and
You changed your mind
And I was left alone
To think of what went wrong
Because you left
Without leaving an explanation
Or even just a goodbye
Leaving me lethargic

III. Summer
But not because of
The hot summer days
I kept myself busy
Trying to remember
Who I was before
We happened
And day by day
I remembered
But still you lingered

IV. Autumn
On the corners of my mind
But I have become resilient
Just as you said
I would be
When you wrote that letter
Containing an apology
When you didn't have to
Cause I will
And I did
Forgive you anyway
