I saw your red Titanium jacket today and it stirred all the emotions that I never knew were inside of me. I swore I was better off without and honestly thought I meant it But then that jacket slapped me in the face and awoke in the a strange reality where I'll never be close to it again. Regardless of the circumstances, and my endless rationalizations, that jacket I will miss, and the body and mind that exist inside of it will not be forgotten either. The emotion they evoke may dwindle, but the moment and picture of your red jacket will stay frozen in my mind. At this point, I suppose I should be hostile or at least regretful, and yet I feel a sweet calmness growing inside me all the more. I won't forget it all or deny my memories, Nor will I constantly be aware of you in an unstable insanity. You were there, and you were real, and for that, I am forever grateful.
Reason for writing:
I wrote this poem after breaking up with my boyfriend, whom I thought I was over. The little things, however, would make me realize how far I was from him and I couldn't understand my sadness. This poem helped my evaluate all that and let him go.
