(The title of the poem “X-Y-Z” show the end of the alphabets, this poem is about the end of a happy relationship.)

How I’d hoped we could live in

Harmony.

Happy, with less frowns and

Apologies.

Its such a pity that it’s not going to

Happen.

I’ve seen things end but I didn’t think

We’d end too.

It’s funny how I can fix everyone’s problems

But I can’t do the same to mine.

I’m starting to think that you wanted me to

Heal you so you could survive your past

Sorrows.

 

I love you, but you’re making it seem like

I’m in this alone.

I’m sorry, but I can’t carry on keeping things

Afloat.

 

My heart tied to your name and it can’t let go.

My head seeing your face and you want to go.

I’m not glue so I can’t keep us together.

If you want to stay you can, but I doubt that’s

What you want.

I never thought I’d say this but I never wanted

To lose you.

You seem stuck here so I’m just here to free you.

 

I love you, but you’re making it seem like

I’m in this alone.

I’m sorry, but I can’t carry on keeping things

Afloat.

 

So much for the promises I won’t be able

To keep anymore.

I’m thinking of the happiness I won’t get

No more.

In the end we all die alone, so I guess

I’ll get used to not being yours anymore.

I don’t wanna lie I wish we could start all

Over again.

Make you fall for me just about the same way.

They say it’s never too late, but it is this time.

I’ll miss you, now that you no longer want

To be mine.

 

I love you, but you’re making it seem like

I’m in this alone.

I’m sorry, but I can’t carry on keeping things

Afloat.
