Heartfelt Words

I saw you 

And you were

A stranger again 

More than time 

Between us 

Between love 

And loss

And all 

The days 

And change 

In between

I see 

Someone new

A strange 

Yet familiar

You 

I felt 

An invisible 

Divide 

Between you 

And I 

Something 

Akin 

To a tangible 

Existence 

We’re different

Did you feel it

Did it press 

Against 

Your chest 

In the same 

Way 

That it 

Played 

Against 

The air 

Made it heavy 

Let me 

Bite my tongue

My words 

Are done 

I know

I can no longer

Speak 

On your behalf

That’s the past

But your hands

Seemed safe

In their 

New place

Eyes calm 

Set against 

That new face

I searched 

Yours 

Hoping 

To see 

Hope 

A renewed 

View 

Of the future

You so wished 

To know

Still it’s 

Unclear 

My intuition 

Maybe 

In remission 

Right 

This minute

But still 

I saw 

A glimpse in 

And I’m thinking

That maybe 

You've found it

Magic

Stitched into 

The fabric 

Of her 

And it feels 

Good 

In a way 

That hurts

I am aware

Now 

Of our first 

Days 

Friends 

Stayed 

Strong 

In the halls 

Of my heart 

I wish you 

The best 

At the brink 

Of your 

Start

I am hard 

But somehow 

I’m far 

From feeling 

Anything but 

Joy for 

A friend

Who found

His way in 

And keeps 

My smile 

Lit for him 

Always 

I’m only 

Ever gonna be 

Happy for you 

And your 

Tomorrows

Void of sorrow

So just so you know 

Cause its

Hard to say 

Without 

Tears that may 

Confuse you 

I am so pleased

For this new 

You
