Fear of losing nothing

Break-up...everyone goes through it!

I wrote this in fear!

Fear of losing what we once had.

Fear of losing the little spark we created.

That spark we should've burnt bridges with but instead we let it die out.

As our flame slowly fades and our journey comes to an end...I'M SCARED!

 

I'm afraid we'll lose everything

And by "everything" I mean absolutely nothing.

We were nothing.

There was no "we" and there'll never be a "we"

Just you, me and my broken heart.

 

I'm afraid I'll forget you in the near future.

Some day we'll look back on this

And I'll have to settle for second best

When clearly you're my number 1

My first forever!

 

I'm scared you'll happier in the future

Without me.

Someday you'll realise that you were my 1

My today.

My tomorrow.

My forever!

 

I'm petrified

because al of this...us...

might be all a distant memory.

But I don't want to be remembered for the past,

I want to be your future.

 

Let me love you

Can I be your nothing?

You know why?

Cos even nothing is something!

No one wants to lose someone they care about so much. A fear can develop that entices one to wonder if they'll ever be happy again. But life goes on with or without them. It's a hard thing to go through.

Very true. Thanx for the review and the touching words

I like the honest tone and strong emotion in the poetry.
"Let me love you
Can I be your nothing?
You know why?
Cos even nothing is something!"
The poem reminded me of the song. Two out of three ain't bad. In real life. Some form of love and need is needed. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I understand, and I relate; especially to the second stanza:

"I'm afraid we'll lose everything
And by "everything" I mean absolutely nothing.
We were nothing.
There was no "we" and there'll never be a "we"
Just you, me and my broken heart."

It hurts but time heals all wounds. Great job. It really resonated with me.
