without your presence
life is still moving
even though there's a feeling
of emptiness, something missing
life still moves on
things we used to do
places we used to go
foods we used to eat
jokes we used to laugh at
feels incomplete without you
sometimes i find myself avoiding
the places we used to go to
so that i won't cry in public
but sometimes i seek to go to those places
purposefully
just so i can relive those moments i've had
with you
the impact you have made on my life
for just being in it,
for just existing
had helped me shape
the person i am now
i never want us to be strangers
