Infinite Loop
Missing you seems
To be an infinite loop
Imprint
I can never forget the
Way you made me feel.
The delight, the grief,
And the in-between.
You left an imprint
On my heart,
Unerasable by
The passage of time.
Maybe we were a
Mistake, but it was
The most beautiful
Mistake I ever made.
I Made it
I have no words to express
My relief, after the madness.
My hope had completely died,
But somehow I was revived.
I made it out the other side alive,
I don’t even know how or why.
All I know is that I have to keep
Moving forward, and not look back.
I left so much wreckage behind me,
It’s crazy that I’m in one piece now.
I picked up my pieces, one by one,
Even though it seemed impossible.
Nothing Left
Pretty soon,
There will be
Nothing left
To save.
Witnesses
The only witnesses
To my pain are my
Tear soaked pillow
And silent walls.
Ocean of Words
You pretend like you don’t know,
And you act like nothing’s wrong,
And I do the same.
An ocean of unspoken words
Lies between us, and so we
Make strained small talk.
On our minds are words we don’t
Dare speak, and issues too gigantic
To wrap our minds around.
False Alarm
And that was the moment
I realized that my anxiety
Was a false fire alarm
Going off in my head.
The Light
It was pitch black darkness,
Month after month,
Until I was worn out.
Then your light showed up,
Making me smile wide,
And laugh until I tear up.
You stay by my side
Through the turmoils,
To bring me comfort.
I don’t believe in signs,
But everything points to you
Being the light I asked for.
Vase
You were watching
A vase about to fall
And break any second,
The vase being me.
Now I understand,
It was fear in your eyes,
Not discomfort.
