I have written thousands of letters, I have written hundreds of nights, And I have seen two lovers fight — But they’re not fighting with each other, Still, they are lovers in my story.
I have watched them talking, A few lies and a thousand truths. I have written their story, I have decorated their glory.
That’s all I have given to them, This is all I would leave behind. But that’s not all they deserve, And I will try again for them. I will write their story again for them.
I would burn all the ashes for them, Without paying any mind. I would try to write their names together, But I know I can’t spell it forever.
Still, I would continue writing their story, I would write it like a song, I would sing it like a poem, I would say it like they’re gods — In the hope that somehow, they can be together.
But they can’t be the same lovers, Because, as I said before, They’re fighting, but not with each other. They’re complaining, but not about each other. They’re crying about their lovers Who left them halfway.
I wrote this poem for the lovers who never got their ending — for those still holding on, even when love slipped away.
