Ruins

Ruins

A Poem by Aehr

Why do I feel like 
This is all that will remain of us?

I, looking at you-
The sun lighting up your eyes when you smile,
The way you laugh-a sound so melodious to me,
The way you draw me towards you,
And the way I restrain myself, 
Because I know that this is not real.
And one day I might just wake up thinking- 
That it was all a beautiful dream,
Too far away to be reached.

Why do I feel like
All that will remain of us,
Is ruins.
Old and broken pieces of 
Something that could never be. 

Ruins of something, that never even got to exist.

This could speak to self doubt our a looming break-up, or even a heart afraid to trust again…
