The Other Half of Me

in #poetry7 years ago

How did this happen?
There's a hole in my heart
and I'm falling apart..

Without you

Come back to me
and I will show you that true happiness is not love or lust, nor freedom.
It is not money or wealth or popularity.

I am not a material person.

How could this happen?
To become so broken
with no words spoken
Without you

I am not craving the human touch or to fall in love
I am not craving a physical thing

I am not a material person.

How does this happen?
This broken down thought
No feelings sought
Without you

I never would have thought that without you there is no me.
You were the other half of me.

I am not a material person.

So how did this happen?
I lost the other half of myself
How could this happen?
I just want me back
How does this happen?
I let myself go

I'm not speaking of a physical being
I'm speaking of the other half of me
The part I lost and couldn't get back,
I lost every good thing that I had

I wasn't perfect but I was perfect for me.

Dear 'The other half of me'
True happiness is wholesome and without you I am half
I can't dream anymore
I just need 'me' back

Make me whole again

Love from

The other half of you
