that embraced my pain once...
they accepted me as it is, you know.
I miss the hovering ghosts
that paralysed me in my sleep once...
they remind me of death, you know.
I miss the silent company of the broken stars
who heard me scream once...
they know what it is to be broken, you know.
I miss those searching eyes
that used to light up upon seeing me once...
I miss those pretty smiles
that used to feel warm upon meeting me once...
I miss those sweet, lingering gazes
my melancholic heart used to thrive on once...
I miss being happy, you know.
I miss what's it like to feel cheerful...
I miss being insanely in love...
I miss the deep sense of belonging...
I miss what's it like to feel anything at all...
I miss the comforting black velvety nights
that embraced my pain once...
