Three Thoughts 💭

Daye Writes

 

 

Probably friends, Possibly Lovers

But definitely, Not Nothing.

Those were the three thoughts

In my mind

The first time your path crossed mine,

I saw those eyes for the first time

I wanted you to be

mine.

 

Then I learned your

favorite color,

Realized how easily you could paint a smile

Across my serious disposition

I started practicing learning you,

Thinking about you a little too

much in my spare time.

not so, all the time

 

The Three thoughts changed,

Probably lovers, Possibly Friends

But definitely, Not Nothing

Then things started to change.

I realized the love only

went one way,

I started anticipating the feeling

of you pulling away,

Your sentences became shorter,

As my grip become stronger

on a love that was falling

through my fingertips.

You took my smile as easily as you had

given it.

 

The Three thoughts chimed one more time,

Probably nothing, possibly friends,

But definitely, Not nothing.

    Wow, this write started out on a happy now, the possibility of something, the re-occurring 3 thoughts, amazing concept. But then this piece turned sad, yet stayed with the concept of 3 thoughts. The poem style being free-form allowed the reader to truly understand the phases, the time. Very well written.
