Before you go

Please bear this in mind

Before you go

...look at me in the eyes

like when we first met.

...hold me in your arms

in a way I'll never forget.

...intertwine our hands

just like last Valentine.

...kiss my lips

as if you're forever mine.

Before you go

...think of me

and how I dearly love you.

...remember us

and all that we've been through.

...rewind everything

from beginning until today.

...pause the moment

you promised me you'd stay.

Before you go

...bring with you

the picture of my face.

...look at it

when you're lost in a maze.

...travel far and wide

but 'home' you will never see.

...know, please know

you can always come back to me.

This is beautiful. You are a very talented writer.

I haven't written poetry in a long time, but it definitely holds a special place in my heart. This was very touching. Keep it up! I'll have to share some of mine. :)
