Footnote

I must have read you like a book of poetry
Lost track of meaning, I got lost in imagery
Or maybe it was all a dystopian novel
Trying to find hope in a world so goddamn awful
And now our chapters end and I feel it's ashamed
That I'll be no more than a footnote in your history book
But I'll keep breathing my own fables
keep living my own stories
Try to write more about love
and less about my fears
But it's hard to not feel ashamed
about the way that I behave
About the privilege of which I take advantage
or my vision often so short sighted
Maybe you were more a book of mystery
I never knew what you wanted
even when you told me
Or maybe I am just an illiterate child
pretending to read
like I pretend to be alive
But it seems like all good things must end
and so I'll do my best not to forget
I got a handful of photographs
gonna store them in an album
try to remember you by
As you move on the ink writes of pain
As I pretend to turn the page
My mind recites the last few words
of our last paragraph
But I'll forget like all good stories
time is sure to distort it
I'll wait a hundred years for endings to change
So that I may call you
My dear
