    You see flaws in every faceIf you look long enough.That’s why I’m so afraidOf the word ‘forever’. Forever is long enoughFor sunrises to become staleFor fire to become tameFor a favorite songTo become like nailsOn a chalkboard;Forever is long enoughFor passion to waste awayLike grapes into raisinsUnder the beating sunOf countless days.

    I came up with a new reasonTo write your name todayI plagiarized each letterFrom a love note you wrote me.The scent of ink was sacred to meIn that relapsed moment…For a minute I could pretendThe paper reminded me of your skin;I could pretend the glimmering inkWas the moonlit lake Of our summer night.But the pretending crumpled with paperAnd I threw us into the trash canFor the bridge between us is long burnedAnd it’s time I accepted that.

    This piece of inked paper stands a colossusA monument to a string of moments once dear;The only surviving testament to a timeWhen these background bridges remained unburned,Before they became so much unswept rubble.
