One year of loving you...

Poem

Do you remember that night I told you I loved you?

So casually, like I hadn’t just dropped a bombshell,

So coolly like I hadn't just given you my whole heart,

So plainly like it meant nothing at all-

But it did and you knew…

​

Do you remember what a dreadful month it was?

I was hopelessly trying and shamefully crying,

Dreaming of flying and yet feeling like dying;

A December as cold and lonely as any other-

But I found a friend in you…

​

Do you remember what horrifying hour it was?

I lay there in despair, heartbroken beyond repair,

While you sat unaware of your name in my prayer;

A midnight as dark and depressing as any other-

But I found solace in you…

​

Do you remember how long it’s been since then?

When I casually dropped the biggest bombshell on you,

When I coolly gave you every inch of my aching heart,

When I plainly pretended it meant nothing-

It’s been one year…

​

One year of loving you… today.
