Insignificant


When we first met,
we would stare at the moon and talk about how we are insignificant.
I didn't realize you meant WE are insignificant.
I thought we were a speck of dust compared to the universe.
What you meant to say was
"5 years from now I won't remember your favorite color
or the way your eyes remind me of a rain forest"
But why do I still know that if you could,
you would paint the world maroon.
I remember the way your eyes resembled a cup of tea on Monday morning.
I remember the day you left,
saying all I ever do is blame my problems on other people,
Already forgetting the nights you had to tell me it wasn't my fault.
I remember you calling me a liar,
but I wasn't lying when I said I loved you.

When we first met,
we would stare at the moon and talk about how we are insignificant.
