Poems
Sep 2023
it's not over at 30 (but i've had a good run)
turns out memories
aren't just silly dreams.
feels like yesterday,
before we went our
separate ways,
regrets,
words i thought
i'd never say
broken at every turn,
and lost along the way.
then just like the time
slips idly by,
i watched you
slip away, memories
of yesterday, fading into
the sun.
Just like photographs,
still frames in my head,
it's hard to move forward
when i have so much to say.
but at least i can say,
i've had a good run
instead.
turns out memories
aren't just silly dreams
feels like yesterday,
before we went our
separate ways
and i know
mistakes were made
along the way.
but in order
to move forward in
life,
i know there's
hurt somewhere between
yesterday and today.
it's not over at 30,
and i know my time
isn't done.
love comes and goes,
but i don't want to be
the one who got away
when i think
i may have finally
found the one.
turns out memories,
aren't just silly dreams
and i know we've
gone our separate ways
but just like how time
moves forward, i know
that new memories
can be made
along the way.
