I still remember you

I'm not really into poetry and this is my very first attempt at writing one. Largely based on a friend's poetry. Look mom, I can be emo too!

Remember those parks wherein we used to walk?

Hand in hand, those idle talks?

The grass is still green, had always been

But the flowers of my heart, bloom no more.

Remember the dusk, the setting sun?

Those naughty talks, nonsensical puns?

The evenings are still the same, beautiful as ever

But at the end of the day, I await no sunshine.

Remember those restaurants, wherein loved to eat?

Amidst the crowd, listening to each others heart beats?

They still serve the same dishes, savory as ever

The plates may be full, but my heart remains empty.

Remember those phone calls, late night texts?

And the half asleep me, talking completely out of context?

The phone still rings, inbox still floods

But the reason to smile at my phone, exists no more.

I met you today, glances exchanged

The longing in the eyes, still unchanged.

My brain asks me to move on, heart tells to stand still

And how I realised, without missing you, I remain incomplete.
