forgotten by your ever-changing seasons

by Olivia Weinkein

march left me too quickly
i am forgotten by seasons
forgotten by words you could
never bring yourself to say
but it's ok and i'll lie to you
if i need to just so i can begin
to think it's all true
it is, isn't it
i mean, this
us
everything that once could
keep me up at night but
barely touches me anymore
at all
like your voice for example
(just for example..just this once)
lets pretend i never got that far
this whole runningfromyou
game that i'm wearing
lets pretend i'm still outside your
door knocking knocking knocking
waiting for you to answer
and lets pretend that this time
you actually do.

Excellent expression of jaded regret. Hard to articulate... but you did an excellent job.
