Poem FAR FROM ME

 FAR FROM ME

Far from me, you drift away

I call out to you, but you don't stay

I grasp for you, but you slip through

Leaving me with nothing, but a longing anew

I whisper your name, but you don't reply

I reach for you, but you push me by

You keep moving, further from my sight

Far from my world, into the dark of night

I thought I could let go, move on with ease

But the wound you left, it still brings me to my knees

Time may heal, but this scar won't fade

A constant reminder of the love we've made

One moment I'm healing, the next I'm undone

The wound bursts open, and I'm left to atone

Too sad to cry, too broken to mend

I'm left with just this longing, that never ends

I want to reach you, to touch your heart

But you're far from me, and we're worlds apart.
