Breaking up Poems

Caribbean Blues

The salty breeze gazes my swollen eyes
As my toes are buried in the white sand
I came here to forget about you
However, everything here reminds me of us
The way newlyweds cuddle together
Watching the stars fully light up the sky
And the moon has yr face
The blue waters have yr eyes
They watch me as my tears are glistening
In the sun

......

The Dance

I wanted to waltz
Though, you were a little shy
And you looked away from me when we continued
We spin for a little until you abruptly took off
Dumbfounded, I didn't chase you
Yr eyes were filled with tears
But I realise I made you sad for forcing you to dance
When you didn't want to
I continue to watch you leave with tears in my eyes
Knowing I was wrong

......

Another Road Trip

one night we drove for hours to make up for all those lonely days. somehow we always forget that time isnt standing still for us to melt together. your words have become my favorite book, and your thoughts ar the ink in my pen. we stood together in the cold feeling perfectly free, noticing the beauty in every single star. your skin fits me nicely, but i would have smiled in that picture if i knew it would be our last.
