Literature Text

I remember when we danced under the great green trees; swaying with the wind, looking up at the stars, and dreaming of the sea... the way it was, the way it's supposed to be.

You kept our promises, I didn't keep mine. I'm still so sorry, I wish I had told you, my favorite valentine.

I remember those seven times you admitted you cried; the days your uncles died, the day your long lost grade school friend committed suicide.

Each and everytime I ached with you, you never knew it but I wept too. Angels, my poor angel, were never meant to live like that.

I remember the day you showed me my wings, you showed me the beauty in the nonsense, those songs I'd sing.

To this day, I sing for you. Every off note, every unwritten love song in my mind and heart, was and is dedicated to you.

I remember the only time you yelled at me; I was shaken and hurt, but all it took was your arms around me to make me feel so much better.

I dreamt of the day I could see you for real; that I could smell you, hear you, feel you in the flesh. I remember the magic you brought, how amazing your love was... or so I thought.

I remember when the diamond started to fall apart; kindled by a passionate flame now dying, and so felt my heart.

Like dust in the wind your magic, your love passed by, you said time with me was a waste. All those memories, I wonder every so often if you look upon them in hate.

Every day, every hour, almost every minutes I look back and I cry... I try to stop looking back in the past, because I was lucky enough to get the chance to say goodbye.
Written during class. It's my longest and crappiest poem; very rough. I contemplated not even posting it...
