June's heart is grief

You used to like me, what's happened now?

Ever since June, you've been so blue. 

Stressing over nothing at all?

A one sided drama, a small conflict?

Is that all?

I say hi, but you don't even peek, let alone speak.

I try to celebrate your birthday, but can't find time.

You don't even seem to notice mine.

I know your favourite colour.

Favourite article of clothing

All your animal's names, and when you get up in the morning.

I visit you from time to time, and follow you everywhere.

I miss when we used to be friends, we'd play to no ends!

I don't remember much, I'm quite stuck.

I seem to remember things from yesterday, but not tomorrow.

Is that why you're mad? You're actually sad?

My birthday is coming up, but I've got no luck.

Just some flowers at a rock for me? Not even some god damn confetti!

I'd rather have games, confetti and cake, then to see your sad desolate face.

My dear friend, who I love to no end, I won't be there to see you grow up. 

Maybe I'm just stuck up?

I'm too sad to move forward, so I'll hang back a little while.

I hope you'll soon find your smile!
