When Forever Ends

By: Christina Demesa Pangilinan

You said you’d love me forever
And forever never ends
You loved me so much
Still, I had no idea
Until you said it
I can’t believe you said it
“I love you”
I can’t forget that moment
I was shocked
But still happy
You loved me
I realized I felt the same
And there we were
Made for each other
Notes, calls, you went to my house
You were my first boyfriend
First kiss
First everything
But I didn’t feel like I do now
Before I felt complete doubt
Now I feel total obsession
I let you go
For some unknown reason
I don’t even remember how it came to be
It’s still unclear how I could do it to myself
The best days of my life were over
It was my own fault
I cannot ever forgive myself
We never reconciled
Never to feel togetherness ever again
You moved on
And I stayed here
Thinking about everything you’ve said
Drowned in an impossible fairytale
Now and forever will we be friends
But I think now is the time when forever ends
