The Me After You
A fragile heart, still beating strong,
A soul that's shattered, yet still sings its song.
I thought I'd be stronger, but I'm not,
My soul crumbles at the sight of you.

I'm still in love with the fragments of you,
The moments we shared, the hopes we once pursued.
My love is a flame that flickers with every thought,
A bittersweet reminder of what could never be brought.

Anxiety, my constant shadow,
A flame that flickers, yet dims my light.
You reside between joy and sorrow,
A delicate line where emotions collide.

Your presence is a weight I bear,
A nagging fear that's always there.
With every breath, your whispers silence me,
A constant reminder of uncertainty.

You claim to take a step back in dark spaces,
But your reflection shines bright in my eyes...

They said there was a me before you, and a me after,
But I'm starting to think they were wrong, or maybe they didn't know.
Now that you're gone, I'm searching for the me I knew,
But she's nowhere to be found.

All this time, I thought I missed your loving embrace,
But now I realize, I miss the me I lost in your place.
The memories we made, the love we used to share,
Are just reminders of t...

Echoes of you remain, a haunting refrain
A summer breeze that soothed my soul's deep pain
Your voice, a gentle melody that filled my days
A symphony of love that chased my darkest ways

But now, I question the truth I thought I knew
A vision blurred by love's distorted view
I search for answers in the eyes that once shone bright
Seeking the reality that ended our delight

Time, a mirror,...

They said 'better now than later',
That you were kind enough to ease the pain.
Soft whispers to calm the storm.
But I was already submerged,
Drowning in the undertow of your affection. 

Does the timing change the outcome?
What difference does it make to end it now or then?
Heartbreak was always inevitable.
Timing merely delays the fall,
The outcome never changed at all.

You didn't sa...

Fear and excitement entwine at the thought you.
A contradictory embrace I cannot shake.
I wonder, how is it that 
you bring me joy and anxiety in equal measure?

Fireworks of butterflies in my stomach,
My heart beats out of rhythm, my head pounding.
I pace and ponder, lost in anticipation's haze,
Awaiting the knock that brings your gentle gaze.

The door creaks open, your scent wafts in,

Your smile still illuminates the darkest corners of my mind,
A radiant beacon that refuses to fade with time.
You were a fleeting moment, a story unfinished and untold,
Yet your presence occupies the space where memories unfold.

My fondest recollections, once warm and bright,
Now envy the space you claim in my mind's sight.
They whisper secrets of a love so true and pure,
But your presenc...

In shadows of what we once shared,
I search for answers, night and day.
Was it fear, or was it pride,
That led you to stray?
Or did our love simply die?

Your silence spoke volumes, loud and clear,
A message I couldn't help but hear.
Our bond, once strong and true,
Was broken, and I'm left anew.

In the aftermath of our love,
I wept for love that was impaired.
For every laugh, every t...

You crushed my dreams of us, ripped my heart out,
Then called to say,
Your personal struggles outweighed our love's needs.
Your emotional battles took centre stage,
Stole the spot light.

What happened doesn't mean much," you claimed,
"A minor issue, compared to my shame."
Yet, my heart still ached for you, I cared,
And wanted to see you through,

To heal and repair.
In your eyes, I sa...

Deep down, I knew I deserved more
Than the fragments of love you offered in store
You were never the best, just a temporary fix
A bandage for my insecurities, a fleeting mix

Of emotions that masked the pain
A distraction from the love I couldn't obtain
I settled for your affection, thinking it was enough
A compromise to silence the whispers of "not enough"

But the void within me remain...

If love means letting go, I refuse to accept
For if you truly loved me, you would have stayed
To receive the love I offered, the heart I gave
Not reduced me to pieces, with a soul captive 

You made me believe that loving you was worthwhile
That you would stay for it, that risking it was reasonable
But you didn't mention that it would hurt so bad
That it was only for a short while, a fleet...

The season's ended, the chapter closed,
Winter's chill begins, yet your warmth remains.
No goodbyes were spoken, leaving me
To wonder if the story's truly ended,
Or just paused, like thunder before the rain.

Can the writer claim the end,
Without a final word?
Or does the silence mark the ending, 
or leave space for more to unfold?

I've told myself the story's done,
But my heart rebel...

After the pieces fell apart,
I gazed into the glass, expecting
A whole reflection, but instead,
I saw a shadow of a love that lost its way.

A reflection that didn't deserve
To be cherished, day by day.
I wondered how you ever loved me,
Or even liked me at all.

Convinced I was never enough,
Bound to shatter, destined to fall.
My eyes scanned every flaw,
Every imperfection, proof that...

In silence, I sit and ponder
Haunted by choices I've made
Wondering if life's path would have differed
If I'd chosen otherwise, would I have escaped the pain that clings?

Time passed, and I weighed each step
Pros and cons, but the cons wouldn't relent
Even so, their loudness could not make me resist you.
Yet, your gentle gaze silenced my mind
A doorway to a heartache that won't subside.
