Rationalize

You remind me of a time 
When our love was a treasure 
Like the finest aged wine 
Unsure of your intentions 
Because you failed to mention 
What we are to each other 
I know you don’t want to 
Just my big brother 
Where do we go from here 
I’ve been waiting for 
An entire two years
Your actions speaks 
Of a different circumstance 
When all I wanted you to do 
Is candidly take my hand 
But I see it’s not our season
And you keep giving me 
Vacated gestures 
Without any reason 
All of this is vanity 
Please give me back my sanity
So I can be free 
To go on with my life 
And obliterate the connection 
To the acclaimed forbidden tree
