'i'm not gonna go down that easily'
you said
'i'm gonna fight for you'
you said
'and i will continue to do so until my last breath'
you said
'and i'm gonna stay'
you said
'we're the real star-crossed lovers'
you said
'lovers'
the word echoes in my mind
good and bad
right and wrong
just and evil
right and left
yes and no
certainty and uncertainty
the undeniable reality and the desperate fantasy
we knew we couldn't be
we knew that we weren't meant to be
you knew
i knew
the universe knew
hell
i think that quite neighbor who baked us cookies knew
you made the gloomy days
seem like brightest ones
and the brightest
and if death himself arrived at our doorstep
you made these inexplicable fantasies
look like realities
and vice-versa
we couldn't look at each other
vis-à-vis
on days where the sun was cradling our love
hot
fragile
something that would burn us
and on others
we looked at one another
as if the other was an angel
something straight out of the clouds
those days
the moon was clutching our love
with care
the softness
we were able to touch it
caress it
love our love
our love
it was
unexplainable
indefinite
unknowing
unpredictable
but
our love
wasn't even there
to begin with
