Queue up Joni Mitchell’s chorus before reading this poem, 🎵”Don’t it always seem to go when you don’t know what you got till it’s gone.”🎵 This poem was written sometime in 1996.
All Alone
Now that you’re gone
I’m all by myself
I’m all alone
I never had enough time
To spend with you
But you were still mine
We were so happy
When we were together
At least in my mind
The pain I felt
Was similar to death
The pain was unbearable
That day you left
I still need you
I should have done better
When you were here
I write you sad letters
I shed many tears
Though you will never be back
I will still pray
Though you’ll never love me again
My love will stay
I couldn’t keep our love alive
I only appreciate you
Since you’ve been gone
The first time I felt something
I felt all alone.
