Almost a slow burn … by Michelle Ayon Navajas
Almost A Slow Burn
it was meant to be a slow burn love story,
it was meant to be a drizzle of rain in between two unassuming hearts,
it was meant to be a steady summer slumber,
it was meant to be a happy ending;
instead a star -crossed lovers’ story happened,
instead there were solid downpour of unforgiving circumstances,
instead there were nightmares on hot summer days;
two hearts, needless to say wishing for a love to stay,
that summer when the rain wasn’t pouring,
that summer when dreams were like wishing upon a star,
that summer when the world felt like an enchanting place;
two souls, needless to say hoping to be one,
that moment when almost was just almost, a slow burn.
