A Letter to a Person from my Past
Coming from two different worlds,
meeting in one special place for us,
where everything seemed to come together,
yet eventually we fell apart
Memories come and go
Yet these seem to linger
by staying in my mind,
as if time froze in place
From the start, two strangers with no dangers
First date, one walk with deep talks
Second date, two growing hearts
Third date, three words exchanged
Once strangers, now lovers
And yet day by day,
Who knew where things would go?
As summer came to a close,
school came around
And yet things seemed good between us,
but things are not always what they seem…
Autumn approaches
Leaves falling everywhere
And we were falling too
Like the colors of the leaves,
you changed too
Things were not going back up,
like the leaves that fall from the trees
Then everything became so different for us
At the end, like a dying flower,
the love between us withered to its death,
A heart broke into pieces
Many tears fell and dried itself
And in a matter of time,
two lovers become strangers
But that’s just the way life goes
Paths split, goodbyes exchanged
New paths to take
and new destinations to reach
for the better, for both of us
