POETRY THAT STAYS

You only love the way I love you

You're just here whenever you feel like you wanted to --- when it somehow felt necessary. You only remember me when you want somebody to help you remind yourself that you still have someone who would love to see your glooms, to tame your demons, to take care of your wounds. 

You're just here when you feel like you need someone to bend you to confirm that you're unbreakable. Sometimes, you say you're happy because I love you but most of the times, you failed to remember me when your sun peeks up the next morning despite how I hummed you to sleep last rainy night. 

Sometimes, you thank me for being there. But most of the times, I need to write every detail why you should love me too. Sometimes, i want to believe you're learning to love me. Sometimes, you're the only word I know but most of the times, I was just another promise you say just to cut off the fight. 

Sometimes, I was just another name to you, a minute-cigarette break, a meantime warmth and safeness. And darling, love is not the thing you forget just because you need to remember some things and that's why you only love me when you got no one else to love you."
