The Lost Notebook (poem)

Lately I've been thinking of you,
reflecting on what was,
and what was lost,
all those months ago.

There's a dishonestly in it though,
thoughts laced with lies,
a pursuit of the melancholy
and reflections of the lost.

The notebook that held our story is gone,
lost in a theatre,
left behind when the show ended,
forgotten and abandoned.

Thinking of you is my attempt
to grow crops in barren soil
while I live on fertile land,
simply out of habit.

But it's time to cast it away,
to look ahead again,
eyes full of fire and light,
to create a proper present.

-Zero
