the blood rushed as I entered this time of year

excitement of the thought to make you happy

as if I was the one to celebrate

when it was all about you


spent my nights awake

scarred my fingers to make you something hard to forget

cancelled my plans just to make it to you

wrote down letters to kiss you through words


this time of year

was all about you

darling, I loved you hard

I prayed for you all the time

I wanted you to be happy


but this time of year

I forgot you had your birthday

I wanted me to be happy

so I spend my nights sleeping softly

forgetting these nights were about you

I smile for the fact that I slowly erase you off my mind


honey, you were all I wanted

but nothing stays the same

so do my feelings
