Someday We'Ll Grow Old Poem by Lubna Hazeem

Love, now that i've grown too soon
I've abandoned the walls of this tiny room
Love, now that i've said all i had to say, i hope
You'd finally find it in your heart to let go

Because i don't want to keep staying here
Or over there, or anywhere near this place
Because i don't think that it's fair, to keep
Diving into the endless pit of our heartache

I know, someday we'll grow old
You'll grow a beard, i'll grow a mole
I know, someday we'll look back
At our lives together, we won't be sad

Love, now that i've known you once
I've abandoned the dreams of the setting sun
Love, now that i've left when i had to leave, i hope
You'd finally stop hurting yourself so

And i don't want to keep saying why
Or asking myself what went so wrong
And i don't think it'll help explain all the
things that we've went through all along

I know someday, we'll grow old
You'll grow a beard, i'll grow a mole
I know, someday we'll look back
At our lives together, we won't be sad
