Ocean

She’s pretty, young and innocent

Everything you ever wanted

Your smile is different when you’re with her

There’s a certain sparkle in your eyes I didn’t see before.

I threw all my love letters away, they’re meaningless now

The titles in my poems are now just a figment of the past you didn’t know

There is no sadness in this plot, no guilt or tragedy

I am happy for you, your story is finally written, a new chapter has begun.

I can still remember how you made me feel

The occasional admiration cloistered in the deepest part of me

Maybe I’ll write about you in my dreams, somehow

For in my dreams you’ll stay, only in my dreams.
