We moved about the day so happily

Like maybe for once today would be perfect.

Today was our day.

But of course when is anything ever perfect

For that one wrong look, wrong word

started a war, a screaming match

that made tears flow like a river after a storm.

The next day we chose to forget it

because you bought flowers

beautiful, bright flowers.

The only thing keeping this love alive.

But for a moment everything was back to normal

We were happy. Back to all the inside jokes.

Reminiscing on all the memories 

from when we first started dating.

Trying to hold onto the flowers for as long as we can.
