Love Poem: April

April

In the month of April 
You appear on my mind
Today I finally came to realize why
As this is the month we first spoke 
The way it all transpired if I was to share with someone 
They would think it’s a joke
The day I called the number to check on a friend 
You answered instead of the person I was actually calling 
You were at work but you answered anyways
I didn’t know you
You didn’t know me
Yet you asked me to call back on your break
Strange enough even though I did not know you
I called you back and we spoke 
It happened to be your birthday the day I called 
I was the first to wish you happy birthday on a call
Was this a coincidence or something meant to be
we continued to keep contact with each other
From that day you see
Unfortunately after three years things fell apart
You unfortunately broke my heart
For the moment I felt so betrayed and so sad
As I never did anything bad
For you to leave me and go
I didn’t think for a second of my life
That this is the way it would go
Yet as much hurt and pain my heart was in
My love for you still remained 
To this day I still feel the same 
Who would of thought I could love someone this way
That we are not even together but the love for you
Never fades away
