One Last Time

I woke up every mornin'
To see your smiling face
We loved each other
That never changed
We met so young, we were so blind
We thought our love would last throughout our lives
We should have known better
Love never lasts
It always fades
I remember the last time I saw your face
As you walked out the door
Anger in your heart, tears in your eyes
You grabbed your suitcase, we said our goodbyes
You walked out the door and left me there
Not understanding why you left
You just told me you had go
You left and thats all I know
Everyday I wish that I could see your face
Just one last time

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
