Lost

The emotions are real. The feelings are endless
Of neglect, loneliness that eventually led to a lost identity.
Lost are the hopes and dreams of the person I once was
It is all so needlessly sad.
Gone are the days of carefree laughter and frivolous fun
I miss the joys of life, of love and every delight that the world has to offer.
The time is past, it is all too late.
Everyday is a groundhog day, monotonous and dull
Blending into each other and I know not the days or months.
I am afraid the future is devoid of love, light and warmth 
Until one day it all ends.

Mine

There was nothing said no words were spoken
Only a look was exchanged a connection felt
I don't know why or how but I know I always will
cherish you, adore you and want the best for you.
There is no need to explain
for every feeling is already understood.
Just the memory of you brings a smile to my eyes
And a song to my heart. I know that I'm happy
to have just met you.
I'm afraid of losing you despite the friendship
that has not yet formed. Yet I know
You were always meant to be mine.

You tie my shoelaces, laugh at my jokes
Tease me out of sadness and bring me hope.
I remember every spoken word 
And unexplained gesture. Every look of the eye
Everything that went unsaid. 
I went for days endlessly until I can see you
And when I do, it is a moment frozen in time.
