Poem About My Breakup

I miss you
not quietly
but in the spaces
you left behind

I miss you
like shadows miss the sun
when it slips away

but longing does not erase
what was broken
words alone do not heal
what your actions bruised

if you want me back
dont reach with phrases
reach with effort
that can be seen
felt
proven

trust is not given
it is rebuilt
piece by careful piece
forgiveness is not cheap
it is earned

if we stand together
it must be real
steady like truth
clear like daylight
with no corners
to hide excuses

i miss you
yes
but i will not stay
where i feel small again

show me you want this
or let me go
