We aren’t together anymore, but i wish we were.

We aren’t together anymore

But I wish we were

I wish we were

for the blood in my veins

calls you back

for the heart that beats for you

needs your presence to recharge.

I wish we were 

for the pain in my life 

wants to depart

but couldn’t find a way 

out of these caged homeless parts

I wish we were

for when I look into the mirror

and see myself 

I don’t like my existence in here

I put scratches on my face

for every inch of it 

troubles my brain

I wish we were

for when I hold the curtains of my room

to look through the window

they slip out of my hands for

my eyes don’t find lights 

attractive anymore

I search for a dark place in the room

and sit with your picture in my hand

crying and breaking my wings

only if crying could ease the pain I felt

I wish we were

for when I put my hands 

on something that feels like 

home to me 

I wish you were here 

so that I could touch you,

inhale your aura 

and put it on my tongue

to taste it everyday

I wish we were

for when I put my hands inside of me

to check what’s within

I see broken pieces 

struggling to float in the pool of my blood

and some already submerged

I wish we were

for the pain on my shoulders

thumps hard on my chest 

to break me open 

and suck blood out from every fragment 

I wish we were

for when I cut open the wounds

on my face

I see clogged and severely damaged skin

that is far away from the healing process

I wish we were 

for when I look at our old pictures

I get an urge to live it again

i get an urge to see you again

for you’ve been there

when no one else was

for you held me 

when I was on the verge of falling

I wish we were

for when I look at your letters

I see you in them

like you’re looking at me

while I turn the pages to read the poem

you wrote for me 

when you first saw me

I wish you were here 

in my arms

watching the sunset 

and waiting for the moon to come

and play with the stars.
