there’s something so sweet
about falling in love with life again,
when every raindrop, every teardrop,
every moment becomes covered in light,
when the bad days turned into better days,
when the pieces fall and you land,
like how you once dreamt you would,
in a haven of your own creations,
beautiful and bright,
just like you.
i met you in february.
after spending winter at the sea,
feeling the air burn my lungs,
forever like a looking glass,
crystal clear instead of a muddy path,
you holding me and me holding onto tight.
storms cooling and carried by the wind,
together through two more seasons,
as if we were meant to be.
then all of a sudden, it was fall.
mid november on the edge of winter,
feeling the air consume my heart,
forever like dark blue waves,
crashing into the wet sand,
me grasping and you letting go.
the rain in the clouds and both
of us breaking,
taken by the wind and erased
in one season.
fallen apart as if it was never meant
to be.
