I wish I knew

Not a day goes by I don't think about you

By Chris SantiagoPublished 12 months ago 1 min read

Do you think of me as you live in my mind

Do I haunt your dreams as you certainly do mine

I can live without you but my heart doesn't want to

the cold metal of your gift hangs around my neck

pressed against my chest, lightly it surely rests

The smiles we shared, and laughs we gave

Live within me, and Ill hold them and save

For once I could be who I was meant to be

In that sole and simple moment I felt seen

Is it the same for you as it was for me

I don't expect that to be true, but I wish I knew

About the Creator

Chris Santiago

I've always found a bit peace and release in putting word to written medium. I'm by no means an accomplished wordsmith but I find enjoyment in it. My love for writing started from world building that being a dungeon master provided.
