Burning Thoughts

As I looked into your eyes, I saw my future go up in flames.

The bittersweet memories we’ve shared-

Replaced with the sharp coldness of your gaze.


I wouldve never thought that the future that was so righteous in meaning and purpose-

end up being the forgotten past of our times.


The jealousy I feel for the people you surround yourself with-

How they hear your presence,

Not knowing I heard it before.

Memories.. oh how cruel they can be-

shattering in my heart like a broken glass.

Pain so deep replaced with coldness and fear.
