Autumn in July

 Did I drive you away?
So hard like losing an old friend.
Yet so swift like waters slipping through my hands.
Did I push you too hard?
But because I am falling apart.
I have fallen bad enough.

And I was too good at hiding my emotions.
Nobody saw me broke into the ground.
But you noticed my vulnerability.
But it didn't matter now, right?

You always say I'm fierce like a dragon.
But to you I am just a dragonfly, too fragile.
With my transparent wings you clap your hands as I fly.
But we both know I was not soaring that high.

But still you look at me with grace.
And I looked away from your face.
With my every smile
A heart is broken inside.

And people never judged my decisions.
But fate has judged my choices.
And everyday I lived with my prize.
But this prize comes with a price.

So I cut all the strings
Both attached and lose.
5 years seemed so short for a time.
But when I counted it, its 9.
