Remembrance

You were the sunrise to my morning sky. You were the rejuvenation I feel from a nice warm shower. You were the tall glass of water that quenched my thirst when the sun scorched my lungs. You filled me when I felt empty. You were my sky, you were my world. I was the first to say goodbye, but don't you forget that you were the first to walk away without trying. You made me believe in hope. You helped me find my smile again. You were the defibrillator shock that revived my heart of stone. Yet when you left, it feels like there's a hole in my chest. I no longer recognize myself when I look in the mirror. I pray to God I find myself again. Because it seems the day you left and said you didn't want me anymore, I lost myself. You were the first goodbye I would ever choke upon like blood in my throat. You were the first girl to give me the time of day and accept me for the entirety of who I am. I hope I don't remember you as the first to break my heart, but as the first one to make me feel loved.
