#peopleleave
I knew from the start
you will leave
just like the rest
why did i expect a change?
Would tears change anything?
I don’t feel hot or cold
should I?
The love, the joy,
it last for a while,
but in the end
it’s always me thinking about you.
The seasons changed
they’ll come back again,
brand new.
BUT
It doesn’t feel the same
without you.
To be lost in you
is nothing new to me.
Though only memories
remain of us.
A heart beating
with no soul.
i want to live
in the present but
how can i forget the past?
Time will pass
from fall to spring.
would you ever notice?
the footsteps behind you
are gone.
you should have known
better.
you always did.
The world moved on,
so why am i still stuck?
The water eventually stills,
but it remains in the memory.
It was worth every penny,
and now it’s back to day one
just me,
waiting for none.

My Therapist said that I have abandonment issues,
says that I tend to idolize the people who leave me,
She says that I build shrines for those who leave,
and tombs for those who stay.

I look into the mirror
Sometimes
And I see your face looking back at me
Your smile, your eyes, your lips
I see an absence
And my chest hurts
Nearly 11 years now
I don't know how I remember your face
I don't really
It's slowly slipped away
Memories faded over time
Darkened
By anger, by pain, by sadness, by this yearning for you to be back with me
You protected me as much as you could, loved me I think, made me feel cared for, worthy
I know now why you but I have but one wish
That you'd taken me with you
That you'd take time to make me feel cared for, worthy again
Come back,
One day,
Some day,
Please,
There is a hole where you once belonged
