so what should I say now?
that I will back away?
you'll chain me with your words
until you get your say
and shoot your shot with her
because you have a chance,
and I'll stick to my side,
not budging for a glance.
i'm sorry that it ends
this way, but we're not fate;
you love each other now,
and I was just too late.
Another year is over, another year is done,
I’m still standing where you left me, stranded,
All alone in a world without you, my sun,
The ring’s still on my finger, but I’m left empty handed.
I’ve always wondered
What it’s like to be myself
Openly and honest
And not hiding behind bookshelves
Waiting for someone to see
And let me into their heart.
A guy is knocking
My neighbor is doing Duolingo across the street,
He’s in his sixties learning a new language
And I’m just eating leftovers, watching him,
Wondering if he’s practicing French for his husband.

technically you're not late until it's official. Up to you if you want to get into that kind of drama tho instead of letting go
Absolutely love the poem! The iambs send me back to English 9 lol
