My Life In Word

CONSTANT

Thirteen blue moons ago
I settled within myself
To walk away
From love unrequited
I remember that night so vividly
That night I said goodbye
The bitter-sweetness of my tears
The deep ache in my heart
I've come to realize 
Over the years
That I only said a physical goodbye 
Because my love
For you has not waned
Or dissipated
It has remained
The one constant
Amid years of heartbreaks and heartaches
I keep thinking that one day
I'll get over you
But I don’t think I ever will
Maybe somewhere on the other side of life
This love for you will cease
Until then, 
This constant remains
