Grasping at straws
I’m wondering what happened this time
You were here one day and gone the next
You took root in my mind again and I let you
Then you leave me hanging
I can’t even question why you are doing this
I keep telling myself you owe me no explanation
But then you left this breathless space in my chest
And I don’t know what to do with it
Feels like goodbye is in order
But I’m not ready for it
I’m not ready to close this chapter
I don’t want to forget
I don’t want this feeling to go away
Cause you are worth loving, pining for and holding onto
Perhaps there is more to our story
Perhaps I’m allowed to have you.

Sadness beautifully penned. You are good.
