What if?

For You

You never wanted anyone to know
When your birthday was
You didn't want anyone
To "waste" resources on you

I disagreed with
almost everything you said that night
But it was your decision to make

I was told when it was
I felt so guilty
You didn't want me to know
I didn't ask
I didn't seek out the answer
Someone just blurted it out

I've avoided calendars all day
I have no clue what day it is
I don't want to
I want to forget

I guess I just want to say
I'm sorry
Happy Birthday

no longer with love, but still sincerely,
A lost star
