Not an eternity


It feels like I'm drowning

Yet I'm craving for rain.

I am staring at the withering flower

Somehow understanding its pain.

Still holding onto false promises

Still believing messages they sent

My innocent heart couldn't decipher

What their forever truly meant.

I stare in the eyes of eternity

And it compels me to see

Begs me to convince myself

That you weren't the one for me.
