One Day

I know that you’re gone

But I can feel you near

I saw you leave

So why do I feel you here

Is it simply the memories

Or is it something more

Is it my dreams

Is it me wanting the before

It should have been me

You should have won

You should be here

And I should be gone

I don’t know what to do

Or how to act

I’m scared to fail

Or to retract

Why did you leave

Did you not care

Please, I love you

I need you with me here

Please just come back

What do I have to say

Please, I beg you

Even if it’s just for one day

love this one, I love the flow of it this makes my heart ache for you! I feel that cold empty space from a loss in the moment the act has ended and the "victor" is left standing and the loser leaves tail tucked only to realize they didn't actually want to be hmmm maybe i have been both of those guys......yep

The yearning for love. One sided or not. We want more even if we break our heart. I liked the need and the want of the words. Thank you Evelynn for sharing the amazing poetry.

well penned

Hmmm. Interesting story being painted here. When someone you love leaves, the yearning to have them back is really strong. Nicely written.
