1 full year
4 seasons
12 months
365 days
my body feels like it’s in the air
& she knows something is missing
something familiar swirls around me
but with missing parts
it’s not whole
not the entire story
there’s a frozen smile
it sits in my subconscious
with smiling eyes
missing from my life
a feeling of warmth & love
a hug from afar
couldn’t you lie just a little longer?
& continue the facade
i wouldn’t mind
if i was going to fall into a trap anyway
let it be sweet & long-lasting
at least, my love,
be my lover a little while longer
so my nightmares wouldn’t begin so soon
talk to me nice
so my body wouldn’t be hurt this much
be careful with my heart
like you promised you’d be
those beautiful promises we vowed to each other
they materialized in my dreams
in this fantasy where heartache doesn’t know me
& i don’t know her
we were never acquainted
& i thank you for that
my life always feels light
& you’re the reason why
so,
i continue dancing with ghosts
meeting with the memories over tea
loving on somebody who doesn’t even know me
for if i were to wake from this,
i may never recover
