(( 3 ))
It's been years
the roses have withered now
yet the thorns still prick and burn
it's been years
the parchments have shriveled now
yet the words on them still envelope
To the earth, the petrichor of first showers
To my heart, everything about you matters
To these memories of us,
that I held on to and you walked away from
Darling it's been years
since you've moved on with her
but i never could get past our love
it's been years, yet i remember
the way you held me once
before you left never to return
To the fallen stars, the brightness what once was
To this soul, a chasm and chaos
To these feelings that linger on,
that i couldn't let go while you moved on!
It's been years
since your obsidian has met my grey
for long since they've locked with green
It's been years
since your waves have graced my bay
for they're lost somewhere beyond the sea
I know I'm the one who walked away
I know it seemed I just moved on
Wish we weren't two starcrossed lovers
Wish fate hadn't deemed it better to keep us apart
Wish I could have explained
why I turned away
that it wasn't my anagapesis
but fate's cards at play
Wish I could say my beloved
that i never moved on
that it was all a facade
a mask I've braved on!
