"Obsession beats talent every time"


She is so close, yet distant

Her voice whispers in the quiet 

I question myself, if these are mind games?

In dreams, she appears, my dear

My hearts starts to beat like a Jack-hammer

Vanish as the red sun rises again

I ask myself is she still here? Maybe 


When I see the word, love 

It reminds me of her, the memories tied to it

The day time seem so empty 

The night even worse it is filled with a void 

Even the quiet speaks 

When I rest she appears, with happy lies 

And I still fall for it 

I ask myself is she still here? Maybe


I reminisces the time we spent together

All those moments, all those happy times

It came by like a blink of an eye

I wish that I understood what you said

Now, it is too late for that

I ask myself one more time

Is she still here, yes

Yes she is, still here inside.

What made me write this poem was an incident that happened between me and my best friend and I wanted to talk about it and I feel that I can relate to others who also experience what I felt and did.
