Sincerely Me

Last Words

We were so great,
You and I,
Hand in hand until the end of time,
But that was a lie.

I miss you on these cold winter nights,
The spot where you use to lay,
Now sad and bare.

I miss you on these days,
Where nothing goes right,
Your laugh burns into my mind,
Making the day drag on ever so more.

I miss your voice,
The octaves,
The tone you would get,
When you looked into my golden eyes.

I miss you,
I'm trying to move on,
Start a new beginning,
But you're on my mind.

The memories I miss most,
Kissing me goodnight,
A boop to the nose,
While calling me little one,
Damn how time flies by.

I miss it all,
And I hate that I do.

I will not lie when I say,
I wish we were together on some days,
I wish overcoming was a path we may have taken.

This being the last time,
The last time I write about your cheesy grin,
The way your eyes glistened,
The sweet melodies your voice was to me.

Saying goodbye to you in the rain,
Was the hardest obstacle I overcame.
I wanted to chase you,
Hold you close and tell you it would be okay.
But with pain we both endured, it would have been a bittersweet lie.

You'll always have a piece of me,
I'll always have memories,
Locked with a key and buried in my heart,
Trying to unlock whenever I hear your name.

My heart is now healing,
I was about to explode,
With all this built up pain.
The words are now finally off my chest.

An ending to what was a beautiful beginning,
Endless tired nights of thinking about you,
Hoping to see your name once more,
Letting it all go with these last words.

This is goodbye honey,
For real this time.

⁃ the one who got away.
