PRESENT


things you said…  ways you made me feel—

  things are different now,

 you never cared?

left me in the dark

            never knew what the light felt like.

 

calling your name

 trying

hear me but

you were never there

understanding you being there for you

     but when I called you were busy with some other crew,

 

what mistakes have I made?

 I still blame myself

everybody used to people walking away— being lied to, cheated, played with

 not something you can

    blend with.

 

back and forth with you

  now I see this was just too cool for you.

 what’s the point of a promise ring when you didn’t even understand the meaning?

 

emotions are bigger than a body

 it build the mind, the soul..

 give myself time to understand

and then

  befriends

life seems a bit better but scary.

   Trying out new

Smile just the looks of him---his personality

  The way he holds himself.

        The way he holds himself….

Forget what’s going on

Just you and him ....

Forget the pain 

Forget the past
