Once I found love
That was meaningful and true
But I have lost that person
And I can’t find you
As I remember the past
I can still recall
But what good are memories
If you don’t have that person anymore
I cannot touch my thoughts
Or the secret memories I hide
Enclosed in a chest
Buried deeply in my mind
I can no longer
Hear your voice
But I remember
How it sounds
I can no longer
Feel your touch
Because your presence
Is not around
As you are gone
Yet still here
Your not buried in the ground
So you can be anywhere
Yet I still feel this pain
As if your dead and gone
Somewhere you live your life
As I’m here and mourn
I tried to get over
I tried to get past
Only to torture myself
For wanting
What I can’t have
But I can’t bury feelings
That don’t want to rest
No longer with you
They’re all I have left
We all encounter a love we wish still belongs to our heart. Nice poem.
