Long-Lost Love


To all those promises that I have kept;

And the ones that you didn't.

The songs you promised to sing to me 

The time that together we never spent,

And to the  rains I wished in which we could dance.

To The violins and guitars, the candle lit dinners and chocolate bars.

Young love and beautiful odes

Labyrinthine conversations ;

Entwined roads.

If only we could have grown old together 

And memories we could make,

But now we're left with broken promises and empty evenings by the lake.

A longing to hear each other's voices and unfathomable voids,

But here's to the love that we once had,

The love of a while.
