Acquisitions

If I told you that I’d loved you

would it matter even a little bit?

What if I said that you consume

my mind like a drug that I can’t quit?

I don’t know how to stop

from waking up to the thought of you

I just can’t seem to make myself

think that I never knew

The way that I’m reacting is seemingly unjustified Why life happened as it did is a question left for time

Things will begin to revert to the way that they once were The past will fade into the past and time into a blur

The days will soon be colder nights by the fire warm and long Before I have the chance to realise your memory will be gone

Lessons that I have acquired from you along the way Have etched themselves into my soul destined to remain
