Without You
I still picture you at the back of my mind
It feels like yesterday when you walked out of my life.
I'm trying to forget you
Trying to forget us
The memories we shared
And the jokes we laughed
Now feels like a big mistake
Should I really have let you in my life?
I think it really started when I slept on your shoulder
I really thought that you were the one
Until I said I'm done
I know you may hate me for this
But I realized that it's not my job to fix anyone
I realized that the person I thought you to be was just in my head
I really thought I could fix you
Not even realizing that I was draining myself
Maybe I should have told you this sooner
But I didn't have the courage
You told me" it has been so easy for you"
After knowing everything that I had gone through
But I smiled and said nothing
Hoping that one day you'll regret everything

Hey! I'm Akansha. I'm a poet and poetry has been my a medium to let my emotions out. Through my poems I feel I can express myself freely and this poem is about someone whom I left long ago but the idea of the person still lingers in my mind. It can be hard sometimes especially when you thought that "this is your person" even when the person was never yours. So this poem is my voice of how actually felt after all of that.
Thank you♡
