I Wish
I haven’t forgiven you for what you did
But that also means I haven’t been able to forget
My cheeks still feel the tear stains
like a rain soaked piece of canvas left outside for too long
I knew all along we were not meant to be
And yet, here I am, watching it in my head, one frame at a time
like an old classic
You taught me to dream, then you took it all away
And that’s when I understood what it really meant
to be Forced to dream of a new life
To push myself to soar so high
that your face gets lost in the shadows of the earth
Today, I found my Moon
Calm, very calm.
But the earth still lurks somewhere behind my back
haunting, threatening. Reminding me of its existence
In another universe, perhaps
In another, life I wish…
