"I'm Sorry"

Language is useless without a tongue to perform the action.
Words mean nothing unless they're backed up with an action.
AJ Nov 2017
I find myself doing the things you used to do.
The way you'd bite your lip when you were thinking.
The way you'd put your hands together
During a scary movie.

I find myself mimicking the little things
That I loved about you.
And it breaks my heart to feel this;
That I can't get you out of my head.

Your actions, your smile, your voice:
They're imprinted in my brain.
You became a part of me
And I think that's what made it hurt so much
When you left and took that part of me
With you, away from me.

Everybody tells me
"Just get over it"
"Move on"
"It was just a stupid summer crush"

But you were everything to me
And I don't think I'll ever be able to feel that again.
I steeled my heart and closed off my mind.

I'll never let anyone in like that again.
Never.

But sometimes... I want to
Some people you just don't get over. I don't care what others say. There's some love that stays with you despite the hurt or the time that passes.

And so I've spoken,
In burning, silent actions.
Long live the quiet.
George Krokos Nov 2017
Do the right thing my friend and let your mind be at peace
and with some soulful prayers the light there will increase.
Our whole life in the world is made up of actions good and bad
but if we do the right thing we'll rarely have a cause to be sad.

Poetic T Nov 2017
When words are like a velvet scarf,
            Exfixiating you gently.

Till all that is left is a scarf keeping
           A cold neck warm.

Some times, soft words hurt more...
