Where Are You Now? Poem by Diem Enjee

Where Are You Now?



You left me here, alone and haunted
by the dreams I thought we wanted.
My heart, once strong, has now eroded.
My harmful thoughts and tears corroded
it beyond all recognition,
and you are like an apparition.
I'm still not sure if you were real
or if the gods tried to appeal
then smash my dreams upon a rock
and crush my heart under a clock.
I dream of seeing you once more,
even if you would deplore
of me and my wounded heart;
I'd wish that we would never part.
But you won't come, so I must wander.
Lifelessly, I sit and ponder
and chastise me for loving you
and wanting things that won't come true.
Why'd I let you go so easy?
I cursed my nerves; they had betrayed me.
I want to go back and reveal
all my love, when you were real,
but now you're gone, a ghost of beauty.
I guess it's true that you don't need me.
Yet I'll be here, with all my love.
Please come to me when you think of
someone who's dreams would come true
if only their eyes could see you
You left me here, I ask not how.
Where are you now?
