When I try my hardest
I can still love you the most
And it's not hard
it's just not the same as it used to be
But our dreams are still parallel
Like the world that exists
In some turquoise tangerine place
where we managed to keep it sacred
And if I think about it long enough
I remember how sad it was at the end
Seeking relief
When we only found solace in naked
And if I reach out to touch the stars
It brings your skin back to my flesh while it burns our history back into the harbor of forgotten ships
That never masted
Sewing words together to make them
Out of moments that never lasted
This is what time felt like
When we weren't able to forget mistakes and tribulations
We could have but didnt outlast and
(I had a lovely time.)
