For the times when you feel wrong for loving someone who won't love you back:

One, love is never wrong.
It hurts, it heals,
but never should you feel
that you're doing something wrong
for loving someone too deep, too long.

Because Two, the world is unkind.
But still, it gave you someone
who can shine brighter than the sun,
giving color to your world,
to love with all your words.

Three, so cherish him with all that you have.
Stop wasting time thinking about
things that just burn you out
and let him be the center
of this love where only he matters.

Four, for you are just tangled red strings.
Time is ticking,
the string is untangling,
then sooner or later, he will only be
at the back of your mind, a fond memory.

Lastly, Five, he may not love you back.
But I swear to the universe that he is worth it,
all of your tears, your words and your heartbeat.
In exchange for the happiness he endlessly gives you,
Love him the most now and do the things that you can do.

I'll be counting down the days
until I see you again
until I'm looking into your eyes
with nothing in between

I'll be thinking about you
until I get off the plane
until I run into your arms
until there's nothing in between

stop writing "be kind"
at the back of your hand
every single day
then forget about
being kind to yourself.
