Looking At Me Poem by Michelle Gabriella Vergottini

Every now and then it catches me
In the middle of my day
I’d find myself wondering
Where you are today

My heart breaks and shatters
Feelings flood my eyes
I had them locked up good and tight
After our last goodbyes

Now I miss you more than before
14000 miles is longer than it seems
When the one you love
Doesn’t feel you in his dreams

I catch my breath
Shut my eyes
For tears are blinding
Destroying my disguise

I count to ten
Pray for strength
Shut my heart
Take a step to begin my journey again
