I loved to write for you, I used to send you postcards, And I absolutely liked it so muchhhh. Then you told me to stop. Why do I love you and hate you
i bury words beneath my tongue
like we bury people once they're gone,
i worry that your mouth might
unearth them with a kiss
but sometimes i just wonder
what you hide behind your lips.
i want to tell you i love you
like a song completely new,
i don't want to sound
like some cover,
a reprise without the truth.
my love speaks in French,
but you only know English,
my love sounds like nonsense
and i don't think that you're fluent.
my love sounds like a splutter,
when it's really a language to learn;
it should resound like a symphony,
a tumbling tongue and a stutter
is not what you deserve.

It's not an easy thing to accept your first love as unrequited it is a hard arduous journey. It is, my friend an epic of sorts
