When You Left Me

By Vedika Bagri

I was young and immature 

Never had I experienced love 

He made me feel so secure  

I was addicted to him like a drug 

I still scroll through our old texts 

And the pictures I have of him 

My heart feels heavy in my chest But I can’t stop thinking about him I still search him up 

And can never forget his voice 

I want to feel his touch  

But I am left with no choice  

I want to relive those nights  

When we texted each other till midnight  I want to know about his day  

But I know we can never be the same way I want to listen to the songs 

That we always sang together 

Who would have known  

That he would become my lost treasure  I know it will never be the same again And it is a different kind of pain 

But you will always be the favorite memory Of my life’s chaotic journey
