Forgotten Love
I can still remember the day we met
A bright sunny day in 1999
I was crying but you said don't fret
Because I'm here and you'll forever be mine
It was an instant connection that no one understood
A love that confused many
A mutual understanding way too good
To not be sometimes rainy
It didn't last long because I left
For a far way land across the pond
I took your heart with me , is that theft?
Had I broken that sacred bond?
Sometimes I tried to remember us
But what's the point when you were there
And I was here; why the fuss?
I mean, why should I care?
So I forgot all about you
Until I learned you were gone
To a far away place, where there is few
Good souls like you, John
I will always miss your love
And thank God above
For putting you in my life
Losing you is like having a knife
Deep inside me, John
I will always love you, Forgotten one
Love Sonnet
When I first saw you, I thought it was love
Your dark, ebony skin, your prominent cheekbones
Your sweet smell that reminded me of dove
To me, you were better than Indiana Jones
You were always my first thought in the morning
Always my last thought everytime I went to bed
I felt better when I thought of you smiling
The things you said forcing my cheeks to turn red
But then, all these things came to an end
You started acting differently towards me
And then you were no longer my good friend
Did you know that I did give you that key
To my heart, a place where no one could go?
When I first saw you, I should have said no
