Love You From Afar

We often forget those who remain 
Focused on those whom we love 
blinded by trumped-up stories of love
Intoxicated and bewitched 
but thumb their noses toward us 
And don’t appreciate everything we give 

So cherish those people 
who remained in your darkest
watched you in silence 
Loved you from afar
