Eternal Fire
I knew every line on your face,
I knew all your favorite songs,
I knew each strand of hair on your head.
But I didn't know you,
And you didn't know me.
I memorized the sound of your voice,
And the way you twirled your hair.
I cherished the way your fingers,
Strummed the guitar with the rhythm of the air.
To the people I wish we could be,
I owe my greatest apology.
What once was, desired too late,
How unfortunate to be bound by this fate.
Daylight couldn't come soon enough,
When you lit the world beneath your rays.
Now I am left to gaze upon the stars,
For I found serenity in the lonesome days.
I hope you still think of me how I think of you,
But then again maybe not.
Maybe our memories were meant to be lost,
Maybe your smile no longer belongs to me,
Maybe my words will never touch your soul again.
Because I don't know you,
And you don't know me.

This piece is about a lost platonic relationship that meant a great deal to me but ended abruptly without closure.
