I think I got addicted to the way you looked at me;
  like I was your most prized possession
I was entranced by the way your lips felt against mine,
  it is a taste I often crave
sometimes, I savor the tears that streak down my face...
  they remind me of how it felt to be held by you

It has not been easy;
   there are days when I feel like the aching of my heart will grow so loud
   it will swallow me whole
     but there are days when the hurt subsides, and I can finally think
     clearly again

I know you aren't good for me,
but ever since the day you left I have not stopped longing for your presence
                       *I guess I am still learning how to let you go

Eyes
riwa Oct 2016
If I could go into the past and change anything...
it would be the moment i fell for your warm chocolate eyes
everyone says a person's eyes are the gateway to their soul,
so i looked deep into you;
and i loved every single flaw.

but you hated making eye contact,

perhaps it was because when you stared into my eyes,
all you could see was the girl i could never be.
you wanted a deep forest green,
but all i could give you was rotten wood.

im sorry my soul wasnt good enough.

Seasons
riwa Oct 2016
In the cold winter of my life
our souls crossed paths
the innocence of our words
and the gentleness of our wrath

Spring came by
and smiles bloomed between us wherever we went
our love followed us everywhere
like it was heaven sent

Summer took its turn
but I guess the change in me was too much
all I could use now was the warmth of my tears
to try and recreate your touch

Autumn started
and I felt just fine
finally coming to terms with the fact
that you will never be mine
