Our time so short, so sweet, ephemeral
Yet I could never forget it, so memorable
Can’t rush all I wanted to learn, there’s so much more
An epic novel stopped on chapter four
Still we tried, ‘ttyl’ became ‘ttys’
Trying to live in the moment, pretend not to stress,
That we’re making a foundation to no building (pillow forts
must come down)
My next dance will be in another town.
Eventually you’ll move on and so will I,
I see so much promise in those eager eyes,
But for all the spark you show, it is wrong not to let you
go?
Can I
learn to love without anything in return?
Can I
wish you all the best even if it’s not me?
I’ll
put out budding flame…to let yours burn.
How can I make this better (besides hire someone to sing it)? Comments appreciated!
