Adieu

Everything we had happened so fast,
I knew from the beginning that it wouldn’t last.

I ignored my brain throughout it all,
Which ultimately led to my downfall.

You warned me that soon you were leaving,
But I didn’t care because I was with you every evening.

When the time came I didn’t know what to do,
I just sat there and began to miss you.

Things stayed strong between us for a while,
But fell apart through all the miles.

2,313.9 to be exact
And getting over you is just something I lack.

I thought that I had finally done it one day,
I thought that my feelings for you had officially gone away.

Then sometime, out of the blue
You said “I’m coming home, and I want to see you”

When the time came, and you were finally here,
I was so happy that I actually cheered.

When you greeted all of our friends you hugged me the longest,

For they did not know, but it was of me you were fondest.

I didn’t want all my emotions to show,
But when you held me, you wouldn’t let me go.

Even when you were talking to someone else,
You would always look over at myself.

Every time you did, you let out a smile,
Which looked so beautiful, especially since I haven’t seen it in awhile

After the trip was up and you had to go home,
I was left in the same state as before, alone.

I told you how I felt and you reciprocated,
But it’s never that easy, instead it was complicated.

For now I don’t know what to do,
I guess the only thing that I can say is, “Adieu”
