“You really don’t have to do that”
oh but i do
for all my existence has become
is just about you

i saw
your mother died
in the newspaper
and didn’t stop
to call

i saw
you graduated
in a post of yours
and didn’t stop
to text

i see
your life
in glimpses
and realise
you’re gone

i see
you're moving on
in life
and must admit
so am i

i think
of you
from time to time
but not enough
to call

i think
of us
from time to time
but not enough
to text

i know
our friendship
is all
but a ghost
of the past

i know
i loved you
with all
i had
in the past

it’s not the same
it’ll never be
you have you
i have me
separately

let me love you
like the moon loves the sun:
addicting
like the rain loves the clouds:
fitting
like the light loves the darkness:
contradicting
let me love you
in the light of the moon
and when the sun shines bright
let me love you
when it’s raining
and there are clouds in the sky
let me love you
in all your goodness
and the darkness too
let me love you
like i love you

I live
to see
another day
I fight
for a chance
to live it
