There's this song, and when it plays, I always think of you
As the melody begins, my heart breaks in two
Because it reminds me of what we once had
But what we don't have any longer
The lyrics sing in my eardrums
And I bleed just a little
All the times we spent together
Were torn apart; were we always so brittle?
The words rupture my soul
Each fluttering piece falling
Into the depths of my own
Sorrow and lying
Lying once, but then, again and again
Convincing me about you
Telling myself you loved me
Even when the flower petals told me I was wrong, too
Now in the end all we have left are these notes
But I still use them to keep me afloat
I miss you, I think
Maybe not you, but the company you brought
Now in the end I'm just left with myself

I apologize for such a long time in between this poem and the last, I suppose I just needed a little break. Missed reading others works, and hope to get back to it 🖤
I want to thank you all again for your support for this book, it means the world.
