Counting

A Poem by Ramblings of a Mediocre Mind
"

For some reason, you were the only person that inspired me to write again. You inspired me to write the happiest poem I've ever made but this time I guess its going to be the saddest.

"
I closed my doors
But you opened them.
I turned away
But you made me look.
I tried to run
But you held me still.
There were stuff I hid deep down
But you took the time to look in.
I said I hated myself
But you said I should love myself the way you do.
I asked what you saw in me
But you just smiled and whispered everything.
I said there wasn't really much to love about me
But you said you find a new reason to every day.
I said was imperfect
You said I was but still you love me anyways.
I said I never felt so much joy before
You said you wanted me to be the happiest girl in the world because I deserve it.
Time flew by fast
And before I knew it things changed.
I changed.
You changed.
Time changed.
Schedules changed.
Things happen.
Things don’t happen.
Promises made.
Promises broken.
Words were said
Words weren't said.
I asked you if you would stay
You said you will because you love me.
I said I was sorry 
You said you were sorry too.
Slowly things started to drift
Slowly things started to go down.
I had less time
You had less time.
We talk a bit
We talk not at all.
I asked how things were
You said everything was great.
You asked me how I was
I told you I was missing you.
You said things will get better soon
And that we’ll get to be together finally.
I said I look forward to that
To finally start what we always wanted to.
One.
Two.
Three.
Days passed by and still nothing.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Seven.
More days passed and there was still nothing.
I knew counting the days will not bring you back
It will only make the days pass by longer.
Eight.
Nine.
Ten.
I thanked you for everything that we have shared
But you never replied.
I said that you were the most wonderful thing that I ever had
But you never replied.
I said I was tired of waiting
But you never replied.
I said I was leaving and never coming back
But you never replied
Not once.
That was when I knew
I was alone
Again
And
You were never coming back.
