Happy Birthday

Another day

Another,

where life isn’t fair

and your presence is

anywhere but here

So many questions to ask

like,

how do does it feel

to age and still be filled with fear?

Do you miss me?

it doesn’t matter

though, do you think of me?

that does

Doesn’t matter if your heart wrenches or skips

but does something when my name is said

Do you still lie to yourself the most

or are you over that?

Do you still loath?

you underachievement’s I mean?

it doesn’t matter

though, did you learn the art of drowning for someone?

that does

doesn’t matter if you do drown or swim back to the top

it does that it happened

Happy birthday

I’ll love you with your presence

I’ll love you without

I’ll love you if you love someone else

and I’ll love you every second you are gone
