not.

hopefully the rain washes away the names

because almost everything changed

it shouldn't be

A+T

it should be

S+T

the rain washes away the names

some names stay there

like the universe knew they didn't change

but i'm glad the rain washes away the old names

because i have a new perspective on love.

and that's sometimes friends get in the way of an ember of love that lasted years.

they blow it out like a birthday candle

and you're left there alone

heart broken and alone.

but i don't want that to happen to her

so i don't hand him the note

and i keep it in my hand for her

so her ember can return

and their love can reunite.

because it isn't fair that she has waited so long for him

so long for him to love her the way he did years before.

and someone who is supposed to be her friend to blow out her ember.

its

S+T

not

A+T.

    like a bird in the great open sky,

    or a puppy full of sweet little dreams.

    your trauma is valid even if,

    you cannot remember it properly.

    your trauma is valid even if,

    it has been years since it has happened.
