To the poet that doesn't know me

I visit your blog almost everyday

It’s almost part of my routine

To see if there is a new post

To make sure you are still alive

And you don’t know me

I don’t know you

But I need to thank you

For giving me reason to believe

In the beauty of words

Just when I begin to lose hope

Forever

Funny isn't it
How easy you found it
To let go
After all those promises
Of a forever
Something you
And not I
Wanted
Because I scoffed at the very idea
How could two people
Who were yet to even spend a decade
Or year
Or month together
Promise each other
Eternity?
But you
With your foolishness
Convinced me
And silly me
I believed you
And now here I am
Standing before an
Eternity without you
