Watching me slowly drown

Would have you very worried;

You earlier used to slow down

But now seem in bit of a hurry.

 

Someone to make you happy,

A new valentine visible ahead;

There comes the face of February,

Marking our connection’s death.

 

I’ve spent longer nights and days

Loving and fully embracing you,

I’m the only one to sincerely stay

And watch you yearly begin anew.

 

If he ever unexpectedly betrays you

Like you once did to my loving,

I hope you’ll see through rear-view

Of the only man still standing.

 

My efforts are hard to forget,

In hindsight, you’ll remember,

Perhaps out of guilt or great regret,

That genuineness laid purely in December.
