Still in my mind, my thoughts, my dreams.
Still in my therapeutic screams.
You've been gone a while.
But you're still in every smile.
Still in my chest, with every breath.
Still in my arms, with every caress.
Still in my heart, with every
beat.
Still in my feet, with every blind step.

I was strong enough to let you leave,
But with what you've left me I cannot achieve
A lifestyle that I actually would
Like to live, if I could.

This is about an ex of mine..A lost effort of love. Hopefully, others feeling the same way will just know they are understood by someone.
