Queue up Joni Mitchell’s chorus before reading this poem, šµ”Don’t it always seem to go when you don’t know what you got till it’s gone.”šµ 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.
