I never thought i would have to write a poem about losing you,
ive tried so many times and the words never seem right,
because there's no words to describe how bad you hurt me,
i try to think of the words all night,
that letter was the worst letter i ever had to read,
each word cut deep in my heart,
if i known how badly i would get hurt,
i never wouldve wanted to start,
you wanted to be with me forever,
so you proposed after you enlisted,
how can two months at boot camp change your mind
and leave me feeling as if i never existed?
how can you get closure from a letter?
i wrote back and i never got a response,
how can i handle this?
certainly not with nonchalance,
you're to young to get married?
why couldn't you have said this before you left?
instead i waited two months, and for what?
the feeling of being bereft?
