POEMS

Purple II

If I were asked
To go back to the day we met
I'd tell you that I'd masked
the tears that left my cheeks wet

It wasn't your fault
These were the tears shed in happiness
Because of our memories enclosed in a vault
Caged all lifeless

You'd been beautiful that day
or maybe it was an illusion
as if you weren't real and were made of clay
making me come to a conclusion

The fact that all I'll ever want
will forever be you
and I know tis not
something so new

Love has started to feel purple
and I've started to believe in it
but doesn't that mean my memories are shuffled?
because I remember hating love to its bits

You've given a new meaning to my life
a new profound joy
when everyone in my sight
had treated me like a toy

Maybe if I'd found you before
just maybe I would still have time to heal
maybe I wouldn't hate love to its core
if only I knew what was the deal

But the future is bright
and so is the sun
it will rise again
bringing back all the joy and fun
