Best Thing Ever Poem by joses tirtabudi

You walked into an unscarred heart.

Built it up then tore it apart.

Left me floundering in the dark.

=

Like a ship without a crew in the sea -

Like a glider in a sky with no breeze -

When you left, didn't think I could breathe.

=

Nosedive into a dark cold place.

Everywhere I went, I saw your face.

Lost my sight, smell, and taste.

=

The darkest of all nights, descended long,

but the night tis darkest before dawn

And a dazzling light shone at the break of morn.

=

You and your lies became a dream of the past,

The sunshine chased away the spell you cast

And now I'm back alive at long last!

=

In the morning light came a new dawn.

The hell of yesterday, long gone,

And suddenly I realised, not all that glitters is gold.

=

I saw who you were, nothing but a scarecrow -

So I leapt off the edge and into the big blue below.

Bye bye. To think I almost had the chance to never know.

=

Without you here, I've finally found real beauty

Walked through hell and lived - despite what you did.

You use to be the best, but now I'm loving after it.

=

I believed in never say never.

But the day you left forever -

It was the best day ever.
