Anniversary



You hinted at still loving, still caring

when my heart was a miss, vacant, tearing.

I didn’t expect this change of heart, change of mind

leaving me guessing, absent of change, endless in time.

Never knowing if you thought of me, missed me, or were fine

you sent me a message of hope, curiosity, or perhaps a sign.

That you still love me, feel something, think something was right

I will spend my waking hours, hoping, dreaming to see you in my sight.



Still not convinced that you know what you want for better or worse

I wish you knew, could believe, I always thought of you first.

Never cheating, swaying, absent of course

didn’t matter though, when you left, I was filled with remorse.

Not for actions, deeds, or anything I wish I would forget

for the absence of your skin, your touch, your embrace is what I regret.

Still now there’s this new opportunity, an opening, some hope

that you’ll believe in us, you’ll love me, makes my heart leap, float.



On this month of our anniversary, the month of August

day 29, the day there was no doubt, where my heart is.

I tell you I still don’t think I deserve; worthy of you

all I’m here for is to love you, to serve.

You deserve this I’ve felt your love I know without a doubt

that I can treat you the way you deserve, no limit, endless amount.

So I will close still hoping, praying for reciprocity

know this now my love, you know where I am, where my heart will be.
