I Don't Know (rewrite)A Poem by Yemariam MarkosI wasn't necessarily happy with how the original turned out, so here's a rewrite. :)
I never knew it would be like this:
Happy. You always knew how to put a smile on my face, and how to keep it there. Sad. You look different. You're not as energetic. There is no emotion written on your face. I can't see the life in your eyes at all. Angry. Why? Why did it have to be you? Why did it have to be now? Why? Why? WHY? Confused. Is this even real? There are moments where I just want to scream and scream until I can't feel anything. And others where I can't even think about what I'm thinking. I don't know. I don't know why things changed so fast. I don't know how I feel. All I know is that I should feel something. I should be moving on. That's what you would want, and that's what they want. I want to. I hope you know that. You're still looking out for me. I know that. I wish it wasn't so soon. I wish life could just be a Word document so I can go back and change all this. I wish. I wish you never left.
