Poem August 5th Date of Parting

motive
August 5th, Saturday not a cloud in the sky
from the top floor of this building if I notice, I'll inform of our parting
August 3rd, Thursday in my heart, a wound is broken
the 6th wound it becomes torn, everything is broken,
everything
the first time we met, I noticed my own foolishness
always unbelieving of people wounding people
why didn't I learn of my love for you
having done this I cannot seem to forget this love
but
I believe in happiness I don't seem to notice
alone I was crying I didn't seem to understand you
more than this more than this I don't want to be hurt
but only now, it's only you that I wanted to love
there's a time I made sure to forget, but now I want to hold you close
I believed in happiness I knew your past
I cannot forget in spite of you
more than this more than this I don't want to be hurt
but it's only you I cannot hold closely, reassuringly
August 5th in a sunny sky with no clouds
already this is the end spread across the ground, staring at myself
"I embrace you" "I stare at you" "I love you" "I will remember you"
"You reject me" "You look away" "You hate me" "You forget me"
