Wake Me Up When September Ends

September fades with the colors of time, And I find myself dreaming, heart in rhyme.

You, the friend I once knew so well,

The one who made my young heart swell.

Yet the memories stayed, untold in the past.

Now, October calls your name,

Bringing you back after so many years.

A reunion I never expected,

My heart races, as if time disappeared.

I still remember how I used to like you,

But those feelings stayed buried, never spoken.

Who would’ve thought we’d meet again,

And the love I once felt could bloom once more.

I’m happier than I ever imagined,

I never thought we’d be more than friends.

From the friend I knew so well,

Now your heart is the place I’ve found and kept.

You are more than just a friend,

You are a story I never thought would continue.

This happiness feels like sunshine after rain,

Unexpected, yet warming my heart all the same.

Wake me up when September ends,

And October brings us closer again.

Because now I know,

You are the love I never showed,

And we are more than just friendship told.
