Falling

I Fell in Love with Someone Else

It’s late in the year already

Six months have passed

The sun sinks earlier each day

And my heart does the same. 

Every day I think of your smile and touch. 

I miss it. I miss being happy with you. 

You’re the best person I’ve ever met

And I’m so scared of losing you. 

The cold of November 
chills my bones

As do your words when you say

“I’m not happy,”

When your happiness
 is all I want.
