Yesterday You

Inside your skin,
there used to be a heart.
But I guess that heart got wings and flew away.
Inside your promises,
there used to be some truth.
But you let the truth get out,
and tied your lies at both ends.
You found a shelter in my heart,
but you never made it your home.
It was always open for you,
but you decided to leave and close the door.
You're just a shadow now on yesterday you.
I can't remember the way your eyes looked when you smiled.
And I can't even remember how you looked when you cried.
You're just living memory of yesterday you.
Now you can't speak, because the search for feelings gets in your way.
Now you can't see, your iris has turned a darker shade of grey.

Flawless. I love it.
"your iris has turned a darker shade of grey"
"just living memory of yesterday you"
"You found a shelter in my heart,/ but you never made it your home."
"tied your lies at both ends"
"Inside your promises/ there used to be some truth"
Wow. Incredible. Bravo and encore!
Lots of love and peace be with you,
Chelsea |

Wow... beautiful poem. Such a sad story... I've been through a similar one, and you really expressed the situation and its emotions very well........
There isn't a single word out of place here. Excellent job, and keep heart... Things will get better.
