Alice's words to Adam; Our Song.
Whenever I hear your voice,
My heart fluttered around like it's been possessed by a mockingbird,
My eyes well up in strange ways,
And my heartbeat increases with it.
As echoes of your voices fill my head.
Those beautiful lines, I hear them even when there's no song,
It's like I can hear the rhythm, feel your hand placed gently on the piano,
The middle finger and then all that comes with it,
It's a beautiful sight that melts my body and soul.
But now? Why do I feel my heart tear up whenever I hear you sing?
My eyes blink rapidly like I have been stung by a bee,
Maybe it's because of the times we've spent apart not talking,
Or maybe... maybe it is I who had fallen for another,
Left with the guilt of your joyful absence,
Wishing there's a part of me that brought you “that” happiness.
I know... you must have forgotten about me,
Living your life like a star that you are,
Truly, I want that for you, but I just couldn't help wishing I was there with you,
Maybe that's why it hurts,
Knowing I am happy without you around
And seeing you happy without me close to you.
It felt like the world played a video game with my heart, and it won.
I know it is unfair of me to think this way,
But I can't help penning down my pain,
Thinking about the nights we spent together under the shooting stars,
And the joys your laughter brings,
Still, I couldn't help hoping someday, you'd find my notes,
Knowing I never stopped loving you or forgot your thoughtful words to me.

Still yours truly,
Balikis.
Thanks for reading and listening.
Peace be unto those who crave it and more to those who chase it away.
Nice poem. I wonder how it would read with only capitals for the first word in the sentence, what sort of flow it would have.
Thinking about that, it'll indeed be nice.
Thanks for reading.
Hello @balikis95
This poem is truly beautiful but I sensed sadness and longing.
The acceptance is there, but faintly.
This is a painful love poem because the other left, leaving the one longing in pain and regrets.
This is an amazing read. I love the story line. Well done sis.
Thank you for reading. Truly, the acceptance is faint, and the regret is very visible. I appreciate your feedback. Enjoy the rest of your day.
