Poem: Wait

That dank smell still lingers,

Lost in the lustre of your memory

I refigure

A life without you, I just don’t want delivered.

Why did you say goodbye

when byes are never good

I feel lost more now than ever

Yet back then somehow I understood

That for  you to return

Would be a wish too big to grant

And that for me to live and learn

Was my only actionable plan.

I think back to the time when you held my hand

When you grinned I laughed

When we kissed my heart danced

Now only to realise what I had but can never have.

**The feeling of missing the relationship and intimacy I had with someone in the past.
