Forgotten Passion

I am your forgotten passion,
falling further and further
away from your faded, trendy fashion.
Here I stand, being pulled
in every direction, but I
keep trying to stay on your
uncertain path because theres
something about you I don't
think I quite recognize,
unmistakably noticable, yet
very much refined and truly
genuine. Your eyes tell a
thousand words with their
exquisit appeal that captures
my heart by the unforgetable
way you make me feel. Maybe
I'm just a forgotten fling
but then again, it very well
could end up a long term
thing. I'm just a balloon
floating off into the clouds,
lonely, and very confused.
It's all my fault when I knew
I shouldn't of given a damn
about you. You know, sometimes
it's easy to let yourself get
carried away. I wish I
could have seen it so I could
have woken up sooner than
today. The firefly wishes
not to light the dark sky
but crawl into a dark
cave and let himself fade
away. Fade away further
and further from your
faded, trendy fashion.
I am your forgotten
passion.
