Does loving one negate the love for another?
And what if the last words they said were just "some day"?
How long before before we don't have to go back to each other?
And is even this such an awful thing to say?
Because I can't help that I feel the same for him.
Because I don't want to give up on them.
Because I'm lonely and he's still here.
Because I don't really want to wait a year.
And of course I miss them
And I don't want to betray them
But I almost kissed him
And I want to save him
Because he hurts like I hurt
And I know I can convince him
But I can't if I'm lying about how I feel
Because how I feel contradicts everything he says about himself.
And "some day" is a phrase
That melts hope away
Before you realise it.
It's a not a month, a year, it's not even a promise.
Not really.
It's... it's...
It feels like an excuse.

Poems
PoetryOccasionally, I write a poem that I'm actually not entirely ashamed of. I will post when I write them. I don't delete any poems, so there are definitely some awful ones from when I had lower standards. I suppose that means I've gotten better.
