I hope this is just
a phase because
I’m so afraid
to watch you fall.
I see you smiling
and I know you think
what you’re doing
is making you happy.
But I know you better;
I’ve seen you beam
from the warmth
of my love.
It breaks my heart
to see you now,
trying to find
that high again.
But I promise you
nothing compares
to the afterglow
of passion.
I hope one day
it will be yours
once more.
