my heart
will never forget
his name.
the first name
that my heart beat,
that i stayed awake
thinking about.
sometimes he still makes
my heart skip a beat.
but right now,
while i know my heart
will always remember him,
my heart beats a different name.
hers.
over and over,
she's a heart attack.
and i know it'll never work out.
there are too many obstacles
in our way.
and even if the stars align,
they'll move again eventually.
nothing lasts forever.
in a year,
or two,
or three
or four
or ten
or twenty,
my heart will beat
for someone else.
i will never forget her,
but my heart won't beat
her name anymore.
my heart will break and mend
and beat and beat and beat
until it doesn't anymore.
but for now,
my heart beats her name.
