the leaves are coming back and you're not.
not that i expected you to stay anyways.
goodbyes get a lot easier when you start
writing them as you begin to fall.
but this isn't a poem to depress you.
this is a poem to put things in perspective.
a reminder to dip your toe in before you
dive.
a reminder to keep your heart under lock
and key until you can be rest assured you're
giving it to someone who's an expert in
playing for keeps.
a reminder that love is not defined by the
length of a relationship, it's defined by the
strength of it.
a reminder for me personally that worth is
not measured in pounds.
a reminder that you'll know when he's the
one.
a reminder that genuine love is being each
others bestfriends.
a reminder that their laughter is your
medicine.
a reminder that you'll find yourself
wanting to explore life with them by your
side.
a reminder that even though love doesn't
always work out, you'll have some good
stories to tell.
a reminder that it is better to have lived it
and regretted it later, than it is to not have
lived and always wonder what you missed.
