Broken Memories
Does it tear you apart?
Like it does me?
When you walk down the street
We once walked
Our hands intertwined
The slow-motion of the picturesque views
As we smiled, time flowing perfectly for us
Does it hurt you?
Like it does me?
When you remember
Of all the letters we wrote
The silly, sweet, tearful words
That we constantly exchanged
To remind ourselves of the love
That we wanted to last forever?
So where did it all go?
The perfect we existed in
The rhythmic heartbeat
That existed only for us
The soft wind
That blew only for us
The beautiful rain
Under which we kissed
Now turned cold
Even the sunset
Is a constant tear dropper for me!
Because while it’s magnificent
It now lacks its perfection
It now feels empty
Or maybe that’s just me
My heart’s joy has now been replaced by sorrow
And I have forgotten how to smile
Oh how I long for you
Your soft touch
Your soft whisper
Your fingers in my hair
As I lay across your legs
And we watched the sunset
Talking about how we would always and forever
Even against the odds
Fight to be with each other
So where did the time go?
When perfect existed
When you were not in my dreams
But always in my arms
When your picture
Was never fading
Vivid as the daylight
As my eyes would always be blessed
With the sight of you every morning
Oh how I long for those days
When it was you and I
