Separation is the only word
That both of us avoid
Even though we know
That we're not far from it

But how can fate be easily fooled?
We've tried and we've failed
And it's time to admit
That we're not destined

So take my hands
And twirl me on the dance floor
Which we once disdained
Yet yearn at the same time

Kiss me by the lips
Under the moonlight
Which we've always admired
In the lines of our poems

We can't run for long
So let's take a breathe here
And create memories
Which we will always remember

Our story is going to end
Yet we will smile when it comes
Because we already knew this will come
Since the first time we started

We may no longer be together
But the way we remember us,
will always be special

So let's chase the sunset
To the far end of this island
And keep the memories
Tightly locked inside our hearts

I wanted to add it after the second part ends, but I decided that the original sounds better.

      That night
      What fools were we
      To deride those happy souls
      That flitted in loops
      Around our leaden pillars

      Idk, that’s what I’d write. I’m too lazy to make things rhyme.

      @Beren that can work. I'm thinking that the characters laughed at their friends who danced on the dance floor but they were actually quite envious. Thank you for helping me >_<

      Yearning is deep, melancholic longing so I thought it would fit better with your poem theme?

      @Beren Hmm, but I think 'long' sounds deeper. What do you think?

      @Beren Thank you! English can be confusing sometimes :blob_teary:

      Try yearn instead

      The rest of the poem is in present tense so use long.
