now that i think about it, i don’t think we’ve ever really stopped

i want to write a poem about you.

i've been wanting to write a poem about you

for so long but i

can never find the right words.

can never find words good enough

to say everything i felt for you in those moments.

i tried to write you a poem once.

but those words didnʼt do you justice

and iʼm afraid to think that i

will never find words that can do you justice.

that can do us justice.

because there was something about

what we had that was oh

so magical i

canʼt seem to place it into words.

which almost seems fitting.

the way we were never able to place

our thoughts and feelings into words

for one another to understand.

and maybe that was our downfall.

we spent so long trying to write each other

a poem

with words that could do the other justice

that we never

said anything

at all.
