Poems

Despite
I tell myself I'll never be yours again
Never let a romance bud again
But I lie to myself more than anyone else
You are the type of person I would always take back
Always forgive
I have a sweet spot for you in my heart and it has not faded
But instead burned itself deeper
With every kiss
And every moment of bliss
Not only did I fall in love
I got lost in the hope
Hope that no matter how hard
No matter how long
No matter how young or old
A hope that we belong together
Despite every bad day
Or every bad fight
Or silence
Or lies
I saw us
And after those bad days
Waking up to you made it fade
Because seeing your eyes flash open
And that little speck of glow in your eyes
Made every heartbreaking moment of my life worth living
And yes I was happy because I loved
But I loved because I was happy.
