Leaving

I wake up so early to talk.

Even if it's only for a few minutes,

before you have to leave.

The saddest part of my day.

I want to scream, "Stay here with me!"

I don't though.

You live so far away.

With you I want to be, forever.

Eight hours later, you arrive back home.

Sometimes depressed.

Sometimes happy.

It doesn't matter which way, I am happy that you're back.

I always ask you, "Are you mine for the night?"

Most of the time, it's a no.

You have other things to do.

Other friends to be with.

So rarely is it a yes.

When you get back home after an evening with friends,

you seem so happy.

It's late though so you must sleep.

I am sad you have to go.

I am sad you have to sleep.

I am sad you have to say, "Goodbye".

I am sad you have to leave.

Wow! Amazing poem! I really loved it, Legolas! So humble, so earnest, such a well written plea! I wanted to pick out my favourite line, but I couldn't, just couldn't. Each line is so well written and holds such beauty. Great poem, I loved it! Keep writing!

I can really relate to this poem, and I especially love the repetition of the last stanza. Great work, as always.

Great writing piece. Second line, second stanza- apostrophe in "don't."

[Legolas]
