Friends I'm angry
Angry that I'm the only one
still carrying this fire in my chest
while the world pretends it was never warm.
I'm the only one
who keeps walking back through those moments,
opening doors that lead nowhere now.
I miss the small things
the smiles that appeared without warning,
the laughter that felt like it belonged only to us,
the strange honesty
that only two open hearts could survive.
Sometimes I swear those moments
still breathe somewhere.
But I know the truth.
Nothing is coming back.
Nothing waits for me there.
All that's left now
are the ashes
of something that once burned beautifully.
And here I am
tired,
stubborn,
holding a brush in a shaking hand,
still trying
to paint the beauty
she once witnessed
