PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I wish I could have you back,

But I can't.

I can't get something back

That never belonged to me in the first place.



You weren't even mine to miss,

So why,then,do I feel like this?



Why do I feel like someone

Just ripped my heart to shreads,

And then,

Sympathetically,

Taped the pieces back together,

Backwards and upside-down,

With a few still missing?



And I think of all the times we were so close,

I could have touched you,

But never even gave it much thought.



Now I wish I could just freeze time,

And hold you in my arms forever;

Never let you go;

Always be together.
