Esther's Poetry

You Will Never Be The Same

The idea of you keeps me following around like a stray dog.

I cannot look at you without my guts wrenching.

But can you remember how the light of our hearts felt like?

My heart's still reaching out for you, it wants to hold the hand of yours.

I am still the old me.

I'm still the person you used to kiss by the river, snuggling on the old stairs of the beach, the late winter breeze making me shiver as your arms were surrounding me.

When I look at you now, I see nothing.

I see a stranger; I see a light that shut itself down.

We were a silly dream of yours on a sleepless night.

You will never be the same.

Note: Honestly I've spent a lot of time writing this but I really don't like it, It's a bit corny and dramatic, I'll probably find it cringe a few days later.
