Stillness

We were children  it felt so real,
now I'm not myself since we parted ways.


With all thoughts I lay,
I seem to implore for your love,
my body pleads for your loving touch.
We've separated now for what seems like eternity.

Reaching for a hand that once belonged.
Once you disappeared,
the laughter vanished, the phone calls faded, messages erased.

What's left behind I shall not complain,
its filled with our pain.
You've left behind your mind,
since we parted ways.
