My heart used to sing,

A melody so sweet, and so true.

For the first time in my life,

I felt something as real,

As the sky’s reflected shade of blue

It bellowed every word,

For the entire world to hear,

To present our love with a blinded smile,

I held your hand in mine,

Even if you never held it back.

It was nice to pretend,

Even if it was just for a little while.

My eyes used to search,

Every which way,

Even in the direction in which I knew you’d never come,

For the smallest bit of comfort,

In hopes this was just all a dream,

That I would soon wake from
