Everybody leaves

Everybody leaves

A Poem by Vivien Shapiro
"

Even if I do fall in love again It'll never be the way I loved you

"
There were times in my life I felt so lost I didn't even know who I was anymore
I felt so alone and everything just seemed so dark
Then I met him and he lit up my world like nobody ever could
He made me want to be a better person
He made me realize I didn't want to stop breathing
When I was with him all my problems seemed like little specks of dust
And when I cried he'd hold me close and he'd wipe away my tears telling me it'll all be okay in the end
And I believed him
Then the dark days came again
I slowly started to lose myself
He stopped calling
He didn't walk me home anymore
When he talked to me it was as if he wasn't really there
And I cried
I cried so much
Because I knew that he was fading away
When the day finally came he looked me in the eyes and told me he didn't love me anymore
Every bone in my body ached
All the blood going through my veins began to rot
And my tears fell like drops of rain down my cheeks
I begged him not to leave me
I begged him to stay
But no matter how much I wanted it I knew it couldn't happen
he was gone
The flame that he had lit up my life with was burnt out and his arms weren't warm anymore they felt cold and unwelcoming
His eyes no longer glimmered
So I let him go
And as he walked away into the fog I realized
Part of me left with him
