A Poem For Rememberance

I'm trying to make your mind mine

Blessing you with tender words that touch you when I'm gone, and your soft see through blouse blows quietly in the wind

Cause even when I'm with you, and your black hair falls on top of my eyes, I notice a sense of longing in the way you look at me

You know that I'll be gone soon, and every high must have its lows, so as we kiss good bye, and you're all alone, I want you to read this poem that I wrote for you.

A Love Letter to a Sunflower

Dear, it's only temporary I keep telling myself

Temporary as the fall - in which leaves tumble

Temporary as the springtime - in which flowers bloom

I keep telling myself that the time we wait will one day go away - as we become one - marked red in each others presence

Red from your lipstick stains along my collar

Red from the marks of our fingertips on each others body

Red from the way we lose control

I know it's only temporary, or so I can only hope..

Cause every waking second that we're apart, I have a closer understanding of what hell feels like; and while I'm not there to kiss you, I'm always here to listen to you; through thick and thin, and even sealed lips, I know the way you feel...

Or at least I used to...

How quickly it can fade away..

You say you love me, and yet in the span of a few days, I don't think you feel the same way..

How could you go from being sad it took 10 minutes to respond, to not responding to me at all?

Was it only dopamine you craved?

Or was our connection real, but I'm just unaware of my mistakes?

- Cause while I was hoping the time we where apart was only temporary; maybe it was just our love that was..

I told you everyone always ran away from me, sometimes out of dislike, but mostly out of fear of getting too attached... You told me you wouldn't do that, that I would be the one to leave; so why do I feel so sad for something I knew would happen?

Perhaps I should be glad it did.. It just means the habit of you being abandoned has been broken; even if its just reinforced it for me..

After all you're the sunflower I was hoping to be the sun to help grow; and guide..

But I guess I was just a distant star, my warmth and love never enough..
