Broken wings

Dreams forever

By Prayoga YulianoPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

As the earth whispers, my breath is caught in my throat to race in my chest

even every intertwined pulse is no longer passed by blood

where are you going my dear love?

does your loss also create a farewell to the world?

stay here my love, accompany my longing shadow of this sweet loyalty

can't you imagine my soul drifting away and not returning when you leave?

leaving the best for both of us

how can you remember every second my breath is always saved only for your heart?

and if everything within me is only for your steps, then let my death overshadow every trace of your footsteps

I never imagined if you were here just to accompany half of the short time

I try to spread my broken wings again

just to prove that I can fly even though I always fall

you destroy me in a pain that you never caused

you cast this self into the torment of the heart's recess

until now I am still trying to wake up from my dreams

which increasingly make me unaware that you are no longer mine

you never stabbed me, but you split my wings by disappearing from my embrace

you gave me the last smile that always makes me cry

even your footsteps that I always miss only become a hidden sound

memories of you may be the only life I live even in dreams

what remains now is just a lingering smile

but it will disappear as my spirit drifts away

perhaps you are not someone I can have forever

and perhaps you will only be a dream forever

I hope you stay here to accompany my still living body

heartbreak
