Bits and Pieces

you were there when i wasnt
you saw what i couldnt
you heard what i wanted to know
you felt my pain
I envied a part of you
I understood 
as I studied those tears
you felt my agony
I longed for the sympathy you gave
gave your all not expecting anything in return 
inside me held the emotions that lived as if there were no tomorrow
lived each of my days to the extent
and in the end
tucked away the little memories
i managed to hold on to.
the reminiscent stories
i still had.
