Love Poem: Nothing Is the Same

Nothing Is the Same

NOTHING IS THE SAME



Nothing is the same since you went away
If we meet again someday, what will my heart say?
Right now I feel an emptiness,  how long will that remain?
I only know the pain is there again and again.

I miss our conversations, my pleasure when you’d say
“How’s the love of my life” That really made my day.
So many moments I recall of adventure and real joy
Why did you think this happiness was something to destroy 

Birthday gifts and thoughtful cards showed how much you cared
It just seems there’s nothing that we had not shared
I still feel the love it won’t go away, have you really moved on?
I ask myself time and again, could that love be gone.

Nothing is the same I cry nothing is the same
Changes, changes all around, should I take the blame
Sometimes I wonder should I play the waiting game
My better judgment says, this love I can’t reclaim.

My aching heart is heavy, as I long for your embrace
Wondering if someone else has now taken my place
It seems no words can express the hurt I feel today
‘Cause nothing is the same since you went away.
