“I'm sorry, I owe you an apology.” you say. Eyes filled with worry and you look at the clock as though you're rushing somewhere. I feel as though
I'm forcing a conversation with you.
We no longer talk for hours without pause
We no longer see one another
I believed our souls were intertwined and we were held together by
a thread but love, what a
Misconception
I could say you flipped my world upside down but you made it normal
The hate was transformed to love
The silence was broken
The streets were adventured
The promises made were fulfilled
There's nothing we didn't do
We were lovers who rejected one another unknowingly
“Its okay.” I say faking a smile
There's a brief silence
“Rushing off somewhere?” I finally ask
I see you trying to gather the courage to say something
Our eyes lock and I see fear in those eyes of yours
“I'm getting married! ” you blurt out in a haste
Everything turns black in a moment
I believed we had something of some sort
But
Clearly I was so blinded by love
I couldn't see it was one sided
That's the thing about love
You become delusional, you believe what you want to and ignore the truth
The painful truth
The honest truth
I lead myself on
I used my heart instead of my head now they're both hurting
They're aching
My heart convinced my brain
A lie was true now both aren't functioning
I'm writing from the heart
A heart so hurt
A mind so broken down
I mix up a concoction of liquor to
soothe the pain but I keep thinking
Of you
How your brown eyes melt so perfectly when I touch your cheek
How your voice enchants me every time
How wondering about the texture
of you lips drives me crazy like a madman
How your hair flies everywhere just
By a gust of wind
You make me look like a
Madman
I fallen so deep into your eyes
I've spent every night praying for you
I love you
I cannot deny it no longer
It hurts to watch you walk away because you have seen my poems
Read snippets and let me read them
To you as though I were your lover
I owe myself an apology in actuality
I lied to myself
But
I
Do
Love
You
Unconditionally
