On my own

I see you,
once again.
My heart receives you,
My mind...
Fears the trend...
You hurt me.

I know that
You pretend.
You think you’ve fooled me-
But I...
See the end.
How could you?

Time goes by...
Watching close.
Some hurts can’t be healed
With a...
Simple rose.
Remember.

There was once
A good time.
But you’ve forgotten...
Love and...
Pain don’t rhyme.
I’m leaving.

You don’t try
To step in.
You know that I’ve seen
The soul...
You’ve within.
Not afraid.

Years go by,
Now I know.
I’ve healed and learned that
Without love,
Time is slow.
I’m learning.

It’s been a...
Little while.
Maybe in some time,
I’ll find...
I can smile.
On my own.

Author notes

Inspired by the song Sixth Station from the movie Spirited Away. The song has no words so I was kinda humming some made up ones to myself, then was inspired to write a poem!

rhyming scheme, use of each stanza's last line

    This poem was kinda written to be read while listened to a certain song, so the rythm/beat might seem a bit 'off'.
