Sun and Ice
Vivian Tan

There was a time, I suppose
When all the reds bothered me
But circumstances changed
And now it’s to a point where we
Might be cold, might be blind

There was darkness,
But there was so much light,
I wanted you, you wanted me,
It was so right
Frankly, I can’t tell
All I know is when you shout for APTs
I can’t get myself to yell

You exhaust me so
Your need for green
Your need for UTAs
Your need for long night walks back from Perkins

The days are so long past
Sometimes I think you are happy
To see my fingers burn
To hear me sigh

You loved me,
You moved me,
You changed me.

It was like sun and stars
We burned so bright I knew it could never last
I feel my heart shatter
The bigger your need, the bigger the break
And I guess you and I
We didn’t really matter.

Goodbye, CS101.
