let the memories fade
let them erase away
what we were, what we once were,
what you and i thought we could have been.

now we are but strangers
confined to the fatalities of
society and life
bound not to meet,
even after so long

but perhaps that's what i want.

you show my prescence
still resides within your head.
sometimes an insta post,
sometimes a controversial tweet.
sends us all reeling
into another continuum of possible intents and thoughts
none of which may even be accurate.

your recent insta post
mentions something about
turning back time and
with flames, burning
the chance that you had
had you known
things would turn out like this

im glad and sad
that things have happened as such-
im sad because
i know
our relationship will no longer be the same again.
it has been tainted
by the poisoned Cupid's arrow.
not lovers, not friends, but not acquaintances either.
how toxic.
im happy because
you opened up a new world for me
not to mention, you're smooth af
you made my heart beat in a way nobody else has.
