Numb

Numb

A Poem by Alexis Ortega

It’s been so long I should be fine

I stil can't you off my mind 

But you’ve moved on and so should I

Just wish we never said goodbye

I'm yours but you were ever mine
Can’t keep pretending I’ll be fine
Every second we shared, every smile, every kiss
Is a memory of our short lived eternity spent in bliss

Might say I'm okay but I’m dying inside
Left numb from all the tears I’ve cried
 You were the last good thing, but I didn't see
How much I’d need you here with me

The memories we can’t erase
No one could ever take your place
Just wish I knew the words to say
To make your eyes look back my way
 
I knew somehow you’d break my heart
I’m empty, broken, falling apart
Can't forget you, I don't know how
But it’s too late for regrets now
Without you here I’m not okay
How could I let you slip away?

I wrote this a while ago. It could use some editing. Grammar?
