Poems

xvi. a poem for him

what if we were in another universe?
would we still be the same?
are we going to be within a spitting distance or are we distant?

i never told you how much you meant to me,
maybe because i was scared.

it agonizes me whenever you would look at her the way you looked at me.

maybe if i had never let you go,
we would still be together.

your embrace is what i miss the most.
the soft, warm touch of your hand on my skin abolishes shivers i have.

but i guess it's the best that you're gone
so that i can work better on myself and move on.

all i could say is,

thank you for every memory you have given me.
