This Is It...

I remember when we first met, You, with your silly jokes, Me, fumbling over words. I saw you, and that was it. It felt magical when we confessed, Felt all our dreams Had come true. The way your hand Fit perfectly in mine - I thought, that was it. I thought my life was complete When you were by my side, Cheering me on in my darkest times, Rooting for me always, Living life just just how we pictured it to be I thought, that was it. But suddenly, everything we had Was taken away from me When you left, Leaving behind memories That could only be cherished And now, this is it. My first love, My first everything - Gone. Just like that. Taking away my good times, Leaving in me a space so hollow Which may never be filled, But now, this is it.                                                                              ~Aastha Agrawal
