Pining Away Poem by Aaliyah SantiagoJoseph

The pain I’m feeling now is crazy
The day you walked out of my life
Could have been maybe, the worst day
Now I’m just trying to find my way
Can’t seem to get through it
Can’t seem to get over you
I’m depressed, I feel stressed
Don’t have the energy to do anything
All I do is sleep
Hoping that this is just a dream
That you’ll come back to me
If I did something, I’m sorry
I just need you so much
I need to know why we weren’t strong enough
Why we couldn’t just hold on to our love
No one can take your place
Nor erase my love for you
You were my best friend
So in love with you
Couldn’t wait to say ‘I do’
Now I don’t wanna go on alone
Cold without you
Sometimes I wish you and I
Could’ve seen eye to eye
Instead of saying our goodbyes
Don’t know if I’ll ever get over you
Been pining away now for 8 years
Put away all my fears
I stood by you
You by me
Loving you unconditionally
I can’t speak it anymore
Cuz I felt it was real
“It” being the “spark” between us and the feelings I had for you
Gotta go now
Cuz I’m all cried out
Just know I love you still
But I gotta bounce

UNO!
