When I first met you

I never thought you’d become this important to me

Yet now I find myself 

Wishing you never had to leave

There was a quote I read in a book a few years ago

That was it.

May 15th, 2024

Our last memory

That was it.

The last time

I’ll ever see your face

The last time we’ll ever talk in-person

That was it.

I’ve kept every card I’ve ever received 

For as long as I can remember

People fade in and out of your life

Eventually lost in the past, forgotten

I read their letters after sunset

I was eight when it began.

I was left clinging to sunshine

As the sun descended below the horizon.

It all started as a blank page

Until slowly, painfully,

My heart began to bleed

As the days became colder

And the sun stopped shining

We became closer

As the clouds became grayer

And the rain started falling

We pretended

It was normal

I Wish You Never Hurt Me

When we first met

I had no idea

You would become so important to me

Yet now I find myself

Wishing we never met

Now I’m forced to remember you
