The title's in latin, because I felt like being creative and I've been taking the class for years. The poem is self-explanatory yet again.

I don’t understand

How you look at me with those eyes

Expecting me to comprehend

The truth behind what you hide.

And I can’t keep hanging on

To a lost memory

And I don’t want to lose you

But I definitely can’t lose me.

I know you act different

When you’re with your new friends

And don’t even attempt

To talk with me as you pretend

That nothing’s missing between us,

You know as well as I do

That we’ve been disconnected for

Longer than this breakthrough.

This is the final blow for me,

I thought I could keep my pace

But knowing I can’t turn back the present

Makes the decision to close this case.

Now that I don’t have you,

There are limited places left to turn,

And I’ll watch you as a different person -

Hoping for the past in yearn.

But I can’t keep living in dreams,

What I’ve lost, I’ll let disappear.

And pretty soon I’ll start all over

Disbelieving in the concept of fair.

Haec poema amo.

That's probably not right. Oh well. We're not taught to compose anyway.

I think poema is latin. I should've put it into the accusative. Heh. Splatin. I guess you know now.
