Palm Tree Sunsets On My Mind

Trying to get over someone.

 

Never mind the broken promises of yesterday

Look ahead to a palm tree sunset

The thrill of a future abandonment

The loss of an insane ambiance

 

Those little jests of valentine laced hearts

More hopes to make my troubled mind break father into the beyond

Falling to the deepest floor of a bottomless pit of lust

You said the distance makes the heart grow fond

 

Saying “I’m fine”, “It’s all good”, “I’m over it”,

Is a fancy way of saying I miss you more than ever

Millions of colors cross my mind in an attempt of a description

Too many syllables in my words, way too many letters

 

You’re acting like my polar opposite even though we meshed so well before

Permission to be me, please, sir?

“My dear, my dear.” My god that maddens me!

The truth is a rotten core

 

Chapter 23 of this book is depressing

I want to shut the pages for good

However if I ceased to let the curse of the ink spill

My existence would never be understood

 

Blue becomes my least favorite color

Dreams can only tell if I would be amazed

Hoping it rains and washes away the line

Though I have no precise time, I’m counting the days…
