day one
you change like the seasons


the summer brought warmth
and colours on the fourth
i felt so young
like the newborn birds that sung


in the fall something changed
still i tried to save
whatever we had left
i thought i did what was best


winter was heartbreaking
you left my soul aching
for something more
you would never leave me, you swore


and now we have spring
i’ve started to forget our little fling
it’s a time for new beginnings
time to find the part of me i am missing
i'm probably listening to taylor swift.
can you tell i love pink?

day two
it’s been a long time

its been a long time
since you’ve been home
its been a long time
since i’ve been gone
its been a long time
from when we started
its been a long time
from when we parted
its been a long time
for us to be apart
its been a long time
for us to be alone

day three
seeing red

what a few words they are,

like birds in the winter-

they gave my heart a scar

and caused it to wither.

——

i’m not lying, i promise, when i told you

that i meant everything i said.

if only you and i knew

that we hadn’t been seeing red

——

maybe i was the only one who felt it-

my heart overflowing with this love.

i don’t know why it was so hard for you to admit

that it wasn’t what we were made of.

——

so then our love wasn’t real

but, tell me, why do i still feel?

ahhhhhh, lillianna <333 Just wanted to drop by and leave you a comment! :) I really love the reflective tone of these poems and the way each line has so much emotion packed into it. I like your imagery, too— “birds in the winter” especially sounds really nice and has a neat aesthetic to it! Lots of love, you’re doing awesome <3
