Your 18th

'Remember when...'
I would solemnly say,
If you'd returned my text
yesterday

We'd lightly laugh,
Then slowly sigh
To think of those times
Forgetting 'goodbyes'

Eyes would crease,
Reluctant smiles appear,
Then tears would tumble
as grins disappear.

I wrote you a letter;
Then decided to burn it,
Because you didn't answer.
I think i'm not worth it.

Memories penned,
Of innocence long gone.
I mentioned i miss you,
And how this feels so wrong.

I told you 'i'm here'...
If ever you're in need.
How I wish you'd just know!
that your mind would see:

I just could not send it- what
If there were no reply?
It would be like the
text last night

Our unsaid goodbye.

'Happy 18th Birthday x'
It wasn't enough
To say all i feel,
To project all my love.

But i hope it was helpful,
In conveying my care,
That i wish you the world
Even if you don't want me there.

But now, i just don't know...
Why did this happen, and how?
It just seems so strange
Caught up in then and now
