Past Poem by Adler Schroeder

Rose petals
They flutter onto the floor
I pick them up with my fingers
And watch as they fall

No longer does it matter
I have changed, you say
The losing battle is now over
And the one you used to know
No longer exists today

I knew this would happen
I knew it to be true
Yes, you did break my heart
But I have since started anew

No longer will we see each other
Our familiarities have gone
The reason you will not tell me
Whether it is me who has done you wrong

No more living in memories
For now the past is past
We have gone our separate ways
For this love was never to last.
