PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The very image of you

Turns me on

As it shuts me down



I could not love it more



After all

It IS you.



I do everything in your name

Even if I claim credit



And yet

A gentle reminder

That hits so hard

You are not here.



I say I love you

The room echoes

Laughing at me

And my joy



I'd say it a trillion more times

Just because it's true



Laugh all you want, room

My heart will beat

LONG after you've gone away

Been replaced



Because she's true

And you're walls.
