Amity
It tastes like simplicity
like innocent
distant memory
You're helpless
Oh, hopeless
and so full of life
it stings
No, I'm not jealous
or vindictive
just brought down by
fairy-tale romantics
But you never offered
not hesitence
or forever
And I've craved this
like repression
craves wings
So, for memories sake
and absence alone
don't say love
like laughter
Or remember me
like hate
remembers names.
