HOW I USED TO FEEL

LOVE POEM

I remember how I used to feel
whenever you were around time could heal
this is how it used to be
the time when it was just you and me
we laughed even when things were going bad
i reassured you every time you were sad
at night your voice was the last I hear
and I was the one you held dear
being apart now still reminds me of you
we were one but now broken into two
I began my life trying to forget the past
but I think the pain is here to last
it's been a while since I last felt love
the kind that makes one feel so alive
I almost forgot how it used to be
back when it was just you and me

Sometimes, the best love we can receive is the love we give ourselves. It's always hard when things fall apart between someone you love, but the important part is not to lose yourself in the process. Writing is a wonderful way to express bottled up emotions and to help the healing process. There are some parts of the poem that might flow better if some of the lines were slightly altered, and maybe capitalizing each start of a line would make it stand out more. But other than that, this is a really nice poem, and it's always nice to read work written with love and care.

The work itself resembles a lovely yet disheartening melody. There are traits of compassionate yearnings still so prominent in the work that with each remarks of the parting, it hurts. A sentimentally valuable work, author BEST.
