Analysis of Let Bygones Be Bygones
Perhaps you were the shadow of my life,
Together but never truly mine,
Those late night walks,
Laugh and cries amid the sweet wine.
I don't remember the aroma of your perfume,
For my heart reminiscence,
Aroma of your hand, meshed in my hair,
Fixing the flower garland of delphinium,
Those melodious songs,
Our dances for which I now long.
Nostalgia hits me hard,
Your love was my life reward.
For me no distance matter,
This heart longs for those fatuous chatter.
Don't make memories with me,
For I was first to say,
But you mend in my heart your way,
You say memories would faint,
But I simply ask-
Does the dark sky left the moon to sleep,
Did the bird leave the sky to fly,
Did the roses left the butterfly cry?
But I won't play the game,
Let the guilt be on my name,
For the shadows never align,
The flower garland didn't fit me fine,
The dances were emotions high on wine.

About this poem
I wrote this poem for all those people whose relationship didn't worked well. I know we sometimes create a lot of memories with our special ones but let's now stop blaming each other. Move on accepting and forgiving each other.
