I Was
A poem
I was.
I was looking to you to save me.
Surrounded by grief for a year,
everyone elses and my own,
you were a breath of fucking fresh air.
You made me feel alive again.
You reminded me who I was.
Reflected things back to me that
I never thought I would see again,
never thought I would feel again.
And then you disappeared.
And I want to say I disappeared first
but the fact is I’m still here.
Very much still fucking here
hoping for any flashes of what I
started to believe in when I,
yes, very much so, fell in love with you.
