Still

In between

By Vicious AvaricePublished 2 years ago 1 min read

There are moments

when the winds calm

And the chaos of life is still

For the space between heartbeats

And in that instant

I remember you

Your face, your dreams

Your will and your voice

And I start to wonder

Where you’ve gone

And why you left me

Even though we were never close

But as that stillness

Comes to its end

I forget my reasons and my sorrow

And as my heart beats anew

You are erased from it

Only existing outside of me

Though I would love

If you only reached out to let me know

heartbreak
