THE Love i lost
I died twice
The day sand consumed me
And the day my lips refused to tell you how i feel about you
Life without you
is like a river that wandered too far from its source,
forgetting the sea
until it became a pond.
Like the sun without its light,
the moon without its glow—
still present,
but no longer becoming.
