"Always take your chances."
You Once Did
Love is scary isn't it?
Most people will agree
Feelings left unrequited
Hearts shattered into pieces
People don't believe that forever is true
Forever is true
Just find the right person
But the right person sometimes….just doesn't appear
Maybe the right person does appear
Maybe they do exist
Maybe the one is yours
Maybe they are not
What is left of a broken heart?
Nothing
Just the feeling of…
Hopelessness
It takes a while to recover
How do you fix a broken heart?
Because it hurts so much
Her hand interlaced with another
You can't sleep properly
You know that you could've confessed sooner
You know that you could've been together earlier
And yet….you hesitated
All you could do was watch
Watch as someone else confessed
Watch as they accepted
Watch as they were slipping away from your grasp
"I never stood a chance did I?" you asked
"You once did," was their reply
Surprised wasn't your reaction
Regret was
To think that you had a chance
To think that they could've accepted
To think that your dream could've been a reality
Your own hesitation caused your own doom
Side note, this is a one-sided YohaMaru and a MaruRuby poem.
I think this piece is good actually. (Probably because I wrote a SS! story that doesn't revolve around my beloved second years)
And I think I wrote too much (subjective) within the span of a week. This originally wasn't supposed to be a poem but I just couldn't imagine anything so I was like, "Imma use a poem."
I hope you enjoyed!
