…
[I thought]
You seem happier without me
I know I’m no longer charge of it
Just break one more thing for me
Break away these chains
Break every fragment of our memory
Break this false hope I built
and leave me on the ground
I miss you a lot
You’re always on my mind
When I lay down in the park or my bed
I just wish you were there
Can you be here?
Here holding my hand while I cry or smiling at the sunset
Here holding a conversation while walking and listening to music
Hold me until we fall again
and leave me on the ground
I feel like a broken record
Repeating our memory
Just imagine our journey
Imagine our first encounter with each other
Imagine every word, art piece, embrace, gift, tear
Imagine our story played as music and a painting
and leave me on the ground
I know I won't make you happy
like when you’re with them
Just give me back one thing
Give me back my heart
Give me back my love
Give me back my happiness
and leave me on the ground
[I cry]
Here lies an unknown end of a Silent Period
Greet the stars up in the sky
I’ll stay here
on the ground
where we left
_______
[you spoke]
…
[I thought]
Will you come back if another storm comes?
Were you actually worried for me?
Or just another false hope of mine?
[you spoke]
…
[I spoke]
No need to know who you are
You are you
That’s why I fell in love
Uncertainty is someone I know well
Someone I despise and feared
I know you can face it, like I once did too
[I thought]
But why do you still haunt my dreams and thoughts?
Why did you come back even for a second?
Do you, by any chance, still love me?
[No response]
[you spoke]
[I thought]
Is it alright for me to talk again?
I missed you, but we left
[I spoke]
[you spoke]
[I thought]
Here I go again, the Spiral of Confusion
[you spoke]
…
[I thought]
Is that what you wanted to say?
How many times would it take
for you, for me to
How many more dreams can I endure
They are becoming popcorns of confusion
Like your words, your actions, your face
Like our memories, our story
[I spoke]
Thank you
[No response]
Am I really being held by a hair?
Am I spiraling once more?
What am I supposed to do when I see you again?
…
[I cry]
Here lies a game of Flickering
Greet the trees of wonder
I’ll stay here
near the lake
where I was left
_____
As autumn tries its best to approach
We still talked
Nothing of the unusual
Until you spoke of memories
I question if I'm okay
If I moved on
From you
Because I know you have from me
[You spoke]
…
[I thought]
…
You speak of words that I once told myself
every damn summer night
How should I respond?
What should I admit?
That longing
of you
Or that pain
of that heartbreak
Or this piece of writing
[I spoke]
…
[I thought]
Please
Please, tell me
what I should do
how I should feel
[I cry]
Here lies an uncertainty
Greet the fields of tall grass
I'll stay here
On this bench
where it was left
_____
{Ping}
…
The truth was told
which was once behind closed doors
Now enters anger
…and confusion
What am I supposed to think of you?
______
Take it as the ending
For a new beginning
To my first love:
I wish you the best, as we leave
…

I wrote this a few years ago when I was going through a breakup. I always debated on sharing this since it is personal, but I feel like I wrote out exactly how I felt. I am not the perfect writer, and I have no interest in becoming one. However, I enjoyed it a lot as a kid and hope to pick up the hobby again. Thanks for reading :)
