Selfish Star Crossed Lovers

Magic Maker

I could draw your face

I memorized your hair

I recognized your scent 

I held on for dear life but

My hands broke free and

You didn't stop to catch me

I felt my world shift as we started

The colors grew brighter

Songs brought us closer together

The sun kissed our skin

The adventures of two lovers

I think there was another

As the space had to become larger

I held on for dear life 

 

I wanted you to hold me

 

My world shifted again

I felt the wind

I found songs to save my heart

I saw the sun 

I saw the trees

I met people and saw places

 

I remembered you.

I held on for dear life.

 

I went home for the summer

That school year was a bummer

I remembered you and I held on

I saw you again and we were gone

  • Comment from author about the poem: The summer before college I fell in love with a boy. I believe he had cheated while we were together. We went our separate ways before college and my heart was broken. I had to fall in love with my new world while I was heartbroken. Whenever I started to forget I remembered him and got lost in sadness. When I finally had a chance to see him in the summer he was a boy I didn't recognize and it didn't feel the same. Maybe... It was all just in my head, maybe I was too scarred or angry. It hurt to much though for it all to not have been real that summer and I believe the entire time he had lied about who he was and what his intentions were. Maybe "I" was selfish and I created a relationship that he never wanted.
