When I Believed In Her
Roses are red
Trepidations were you
Your affirmations from my kisses
Wouldn’t be enough
To get through to you
I would compile the wishes in our visions,
Candlelight laughter caressed the dishonor in your smile
And I would slow dance with your embattled tears,
Empathic gestures where you are the only sunshine
Who matters
Violets are blue
Like the skies which I sought for us to fly
But you wanted to hold me from a distance
With welcomed whispers on text
Now, I disconnect this line to your recycled insecurities.
While I water the flowers of my present,
To grow a new tomorrow
Hoping the dirt in your lyrics will one day embrace the rain.
