A Poem for a Lost Love

When I close my eyes,

I see you, but when I open them,

you are gone. Sometimes,

I catch a glimpse of you in my dreams,

and for a moment it feels like you never left.

But when I wake up,

the reality hits me all over again.

I’ll never get the chance to see you smile or hear your laughter again,

but I will never forget the love and joy you brought into my life.

I will forever cherish the moments we shared and hold onto the love we have.

When I close my eyes,

I see your eyes full of love, I feel your warm hugs,

I smell your scent.

You’ll always be a part of me.

Your memory will continue to live on in my heart and mind.

I know you’re watching over me, and that brings me comfort.

Until we meet again.
