Marzapan

I’ve come to realize,

I am not solely myself.

I am pieces of those I love,

Pieces of those I’ve loved, too.

They make me who I am,

who I strive to become.

Deep in my heart,

Your words were like a false sea,

only meant to convince me.

And when I asked what it’d be,

you still decided to go with the wind,

Foolishly I still waited, until eventually,

I grew tired of waiting for you,

The explosion of a star, 

Happens so far-

away, you’ll never see it. 

Though, in the death, 

The colors are like a breath-
