how to start anew

it's January.
my heart is cold
the only thing keeping me warm
are the stories you told.

it's March.
the flowers are growing on me
and the source of my happiness
is the sunshine you have been.

it's May.
the heat is now blazing fire
you told me you loved me
but there's something else you desire.

it's August.
I have turned eighteen
yet your memories are littered
and I'm waiting to be clean.

it's October.
the rain has gone away
and i think, just like you
it didn't stay

it's December.
and I want to start anew
but how can I
when I still love you?
