Out of the Labyrinth

Trying to forget someone you love

Is like moving on to a pool of fire

Sparks of pain, one by one

It engulfs slowly

Until embers of joy no longer glow

It’s like stumbling upon a moor

Its beauty, a temptation

To go wandering in the mist

And upon the rocks of the earth

Lost in remembrance’s pleasure

Draft for my literature assignment! 

Saving it here. :)

I looked and saw your restless soul

Of unreasonable desire

It was beyond me for that role

To have passion and dreams of fire

A flaring feeling from within

Even forever can’t suffice

The heaven’s sun kissing my skin

A sliver of faith in your eyes

Of the rare words I always miss

Time of ours has fervently burned

And many more things will perish

Or so, that is what I have learned

Even the fire cannot restore

With such a pure blinding light

The moments I always long for

The goodbyes I never set right

To my Ideal Guy.

We were never meant to be.

We can’t be meant to be, anyway.

But you always occupied a special spot in my heart.

Thank you for being there when no one was.

And now that someone is here, I can close whatever we had.

But it’s time I return the favor to you.

I will be there when you’ll ask of me.

Not in words, I know. You weren’t good with them.

But you had one of the most gorgeous eyes and soul I have seen.

That’s enough.

And this is enough.

I forgot the feeling. But I remember you.

Impossible not to.
