halcyon


I was the tree, Standing alone, grounded into the soul of courage, Bound to hopes of many beautiful seconds, which I want to live in. You were my leaves, Surviving with me, striving with me, from your beginning You made my desires come true. Like the leaves, you spread the verdure, the bliss around me. You make me so extensive, so contented. But suddenly, you flee away from me, very unbothered. Taking my entire soul with you I just stand there, without life, cannot escape with my feet fixed there. I grew, with my strength, my solitude I didn't realize why you left me alone until you came back again You wanted me to thrive, learn, and live bravely. All you wanted is to make me stronger I just realised that you wanted to untangle the old me into the one who I'm now. You just wanted me to rise, blossom. That's so selfless. Your love for me made me who I'm at this moment And that love of yours, that's making me guilty, I didn't love you as you did. And I don't know how to perceive it, you'll again leave me but I want to spend my verve with you, as long as you stay with me, I really want to make new memories with you.
