Letter to you
Adhir Munnhar 2006 (Johannesburg)
A letter to you
The person who always saw me through
The person who made sure I grew
And somehow around you I always flew
But like all things I was brought back down to earth
By none other than, guess who, You.
Who had me questioning everything
From your love to my own worth
Broken down to an unrecognizable shell
Oh, that truly felt like hell
But I acted like it was all swell
Lying even as I fell
Always holding onto the hope
Wishing your mind will change
Or a miracle meeting will happen
And I could fix my mistakes
But life isn't so forgiving
That's the cost of living
And the pain of loving
About this poem
About heartbreak Unable to move on Hoping for another chance
