Gone

7:26 PM Cassie 0 Comments

I still remember the touch of your hands,
your fingers laced with mine,
your arms wrapped around my waist,
your breath next to my ear.

I still remember the look in your eyes
that took my breath away,
that gave me the hope to live once more,
that made me think that I could have a happy ending
again -- with you.

You still linger under my skin.
Your breath is still in the air that surrounds me.
Your cold lips are still felt on my left cheek.
But when I look around,
you are nowhere to be found.
And once again,
I am transported back to reality,
to the reality that
you are gone -- unfortunately, forever.

But everyday it seems that your presence
has never left me.
I still long for every inch of you.
The longing grows harder everyday,
and it hurts to realize
that the longing I am feeling
will only stay as a longing,
from that day on.

You have left for good,
and I know I cannot bring you back,
but everyday I wish I could.
I do not mind that you would like to leave me
for something, for someone else,
but just not like this.
I wish you are next to me for the last time
so I could hug you tighter and longer than usual
because I know you would be gone again by the day.

I wish you never left.
If only I knew, I would have hold on to you a little firmer.
If only I knew, I would have memorized your face a little too usual.
If only I knew, but I did not... nobody did.
I know you are reading this right now,
probably overlooking behind me.
I want you to know that I miss you everyday
and even if someone new comes in,
you will always, always be somewhere in me.

Until we meet again.
