Poem / To my Ginger

To my Ginger

Some broken memories
Hidden within these brain trees
All the things I have seen
Make me who I've turned out to be

Sitting here in this plastic garden chair
All I can remember's your soft ginger hair
The feelings I had for you I wish I shared
I wish I had told you I'm here and that I care

No you've left me all alone
Stuck here in my home
Looking for love, only finding dry bones
We both knew you had to go

It's been over a year since you left
You left me thinking I was dead
About a month or two after
You contacted me. Damn I missed your laughter

We had a fight a few weeks later
About how the universe was just another hater
Again we took our break
Lasted more than six months maybe even eight

You messaged me again
To apologize and tell me I was what you're missin'
I wish you weren't a world away
Even though we talked every day

It sucks that I can't see your living flowing face
All I can think off is this stupid space
You really don't know what you did
When you left without even saying bye

I felt like I had lost something that day
My best friend, My love and My will to cry
Turned me to stone you did
Removed the moistness from my eye lids

I hope that one day we'll meet again
Because girl you are what I'm needin'
You told me something strange the other day
How you looked back at the photos of our stay

You told me they were nostalgic
You sent them to me and I felt like I was living them
I looked no longer than a second trying not to feel again
That glimpse opened my heart
It felt inside like you gave me a kick start
I remembered just how clearly we stood on that field
I gazed into your eyes they were like my shield

I couldn't believe that I let you go
All cause you thought I was messing with another hoe
You were all I wanted
Right from the moment I put my arms around you

I realized that on the bus
When you lay your head against my chest
I had shivers, it was the best
Your hands were so soft and pure
I knew that I wanted to be the one with you next year

That never came
But I am so grateful of the time you gave
You gave me a few months of happiness
Everyday was a day of loveliness

I just hope you know
Even though we are continents apart
You will forever be in my heart
Even though I might not see you again
Just remember you rewired my brain
And showed me a small portion of heaven
