You



You

It has been years.
Close to being a decade, of not seeing you.
Yet,
You still hold a special place in my heart.
You, you are my veins.
The carrier of the fuel I need to live.
You, you are my promised paradise.

Your leave left me broken.
Broken beyond repair.
Broken beyond recognition.
You, you left me hopeless.
Yet,
I still feel close to you.
Close to us.

You, you are still the one that keeps me sane.
My coping mechanism.
I hope you return,
return to my heart,
which will forever be your home.

About this poem

It does not fall under one umbrella. It is broad. Could dedicate it to your lost lover, friend or family. Even the late. However, I wrote it in remembrance of my late best friend.
