Goodbye, I Never Made It
You said how my dimples took you there
You said you couldn't wait to watch me smile
You loved my spice
You loved my perfume
The newborn hours were the best
I felt your warmth
I was enticed by your dots
I wanted to follow them to a garden that flowers forever
The love heaven felt eternal
You loved the smell of cocoa butter
Your sweetest words crowned me
I was queen, and you were my king
That's how big you were in my heart and mind
Until after a long time, i saw you as what i didn't want
Scars wouldn't let me breathe
I was no longer naive, atleast not as much
It hurt more than anything else
My heart was new to that kind of trauma
First love is a deep diver
First love can be a wild fire
