I Thought of You The Other Day

I thought of you the other day.

I thought you were out of my head

Out of my heart.

But yet, I feel like you need me by your side.

Being there for you, being part of your life

I don't get it.

I don't understand.

My heart breaks just picturing your face.

Imagining you talking to me

Or the sound of your voice.

I have that little feeling for you

But then again, I say no.

I must not fall back in your trap.

When you need help

Please find someone else.

The past is the past.

I have someone now

And a future to look forward to.

But yet, I thought of you the other day.

This is a nice tale of heartbreak and the struggle to go on. You captured the feelings beautifully.
I loved how you ended with a repeat of the beginning. It nicely highlighted the point of the poem and the conflict of emotion it spoke of.

The only thing I noted:
I must not fall back in your tap. (did you mean trap?)

Well done :)

[AyeooSteph]

Yes, I meant trap. Thanks for noticing, I corrected it :]

At times... you reflect the good that was in another relationship... and then understand the better of you has moved on... and this shows in the verse...

I like this story. It greatly captures the way people look back at the past sometimes and the way that it can break you down. It's beautiful.

I guess this is when
we once in a while think of our old flame
though we have a new fire;
When small things remind us
of what we did yesterday
with the one we once had intimacy with
although we have moved on;
It's just flashbacks.

Great thoughts and good writing. I love the boldness in the last stanza.
Good lines - "When you need help
Please find someone else."
