Determination, diligence
Is what I saw
Running away is what I reciprocated with.
All the right things is what you did
Making the coldness in my chest melt.
Happiness, Affection
Is what I felt
With you by my side, and in my heart.
The heart that you thawed, and made your home.
I tried to make this home the best I could
But even the sun sets in paradise.
You came home fewer, my heart grew colder.
Every day was an agony
Reaching out was what I did.
But I lacked acknowledgement.
To this day, it is a mystery
As to why you up’ed and left my heart.
The heart you thawed and made your home.
