former flame

Meet me where our journey first began, Same place, same time, same loving plan. Wear the same black shirt that caught my eye, And bring the rose that made my heart sigh. Though time has passed, and love has changed You're not the same, and neither am I, it's strange. I won't call you my past, that's not your name, You're my Former Flame, that once burned bright with fame You're now a flicker of memories, forever shining through, I know I shouldn't touch you now, But your scent brings back memories somehow. I'll show you the poems and letters I wrote, The ones I never sent, but kept in my heart for you. Will you read them and feel what I felt? Will you understand how much I loved you, and still do the same! If I break down and cry will you comfort me or just tell me to leave If I wear the red saree you once gifted me, Will you praise my beauty like you used to, wild and free? I know it's just a dream, for you're not the same, My Former Flame, now just a flicker of memories and pain. You're the heartbreak stories I hold within, The unsent letters, the tears I hid from your sight, again and again." ✍️ Aparna paul If you like this poem don't forget to like share and comment below Thank you ❤️ Aparna👀
