you were once somebody.
a familiar figure
sitting on a couch
jumping in anticipation
while your favorite football team
plays on our broken down television
a natural sight.
you were once everything.
a love letter, a sad song,
the sunrise, and the storm
my favorite book
from my favorite author.
a heart felt poem of
an eighteen year old me
in a uniform
we were a cliché in literature
had a love like forever yet
a poison to the other
all of these, and you're gone
in the 5475th day
of another cloudless morning
without you,
still,
you remained
somebody to me
