Seasons (Oct. 2012)

You were only here, from sunrise to sunset.
Yet I wish it was summer to spring.
And again, summer to spring.

Your words fade each day,
And the distance between us grows longer,
The absence stronger.

I wish you were here with me,
Yesterday, or today, or tomorrow...
But you've been gone for days, months, years!

So many things were left unspoken,
But you're nowhere near to listen.
So I'll sit here alone,
Victim to all these words burning in my mind.

I loved you but... I don't think you loved me.
I want to love you again, but...
My love for you won't let me.

So I'll sit here and wait.
Wait for one day where my tired mind
will be washed of those once sweet memories we shared.

I've heard before that
loving is short and forgetting is so long,
But this has only made me wonder that
if you combine the two into "forgetting love,"
does it ever end?

How do you forget the feeling of fingers entwining?
Or the smell of the coffee we shared.
Those sensations late at night,
Breathless highs;
I thought we were unbreakable.

But those thoughts and feelings all left with you.
Four years ago you left me on a sunset quite like this one.
I once wanted you from summer to spring,
But now seasons don't even happen anymore.

You left me on a beautiful sunset,
And now I'm leaving you on this unbecoming sunrise.
