Eh this is a concept poem for the moment I need to rework some stuff but ja
know how it is it needs to either lengthen or get shorter
Foreign Tears
I can hold this old picture
That's wearing at the edges
Aged to a golden rust
Filled with images
Of me and you
The Chrysanthemums
in the background
Are in full bloom
Just like your smile
I stare into this cloudless sky
A perfect day
Without you here
The sun is like a shooting star
Burning up in the atmosphere
And the tree leaves
Shine like silver
Reflecting the light
Back into the sky
But none of it
Can compare to you
I wish my dreams
Flew on stronger wings
And my love for you
Could finally reach you
On these paper wings
But memories in a photo
Can't change the future
Just tell of a past
Of what ifs and maybes
How i wish you were here
You've grown
Like a flower
Over these past two years
From a beautiful girl
To an enchanting young woman
Now you're just like
The Chrysanthemums with
This old picture
Eventually you'll fade with time
And I'll never see you again
I remember the nights
I'd sit out on the lawn
And the only thing
That was on my mind was you
I just want to know
If I'll ever be anything more
Then a stranger in your eyes
Please tell me now
Cause in the end
You're all that matters
And these nights
Are getting restless
Without even the ghost
Of your memory to comfort me
I lay with a heavy heart
These tears that roll
Down my cheek
Feel so foreign
Except when they're falling for you
