Romantic Poem
At the edge of her tomorrow,
I am one step away
from being another
memory.
I start fading
into all the dreams
she chooses not to remember.
I start fading
from the midnight of her eyes
as she turns back to her sun.
I start fading
into the blackness of her pain,
forgotten
as the dawn light spills
back into her life.
I start fading
from the life we had together
living only in the unconscious thoughts
she buries.
I start fading
knowing
she was never mine to keep.
This is my first real attempt at writing from a male point of view and it happened by accident; the universe played a sneaky trick on me so to speak. 😁💜 I hope you enjoy this attempt.
