Who?, What?, When?, Why?, How?

by Chanel Alford   Oct 13, 2005


Who do I trust with each feeling?
who do I talk to when my soul needs healing?
who do I turn to with when my mind seems like two?
who do I love when I can't love you?

what do I do when I can't decide?
what do I say when feelings show that I cannot hide?
what do I feel when I'm broken in two?
what do I do when I have to live without you?

when does the pain go away from that catastrophic day?
when do the three words become easier to say?
when do I begin to live again?
when does my world leave this dark space it's in?

why do these tears keep falling from my eyes?
why do you not see my emotional demise?
why do these feelings hurt so bad?
why does it feel this way when you are the best I've never had?

how do I react when there is a space in my bed?
how do I not cry when I see the pillow that should rest your head?
how do the hours pass by so slowly without you here?
how do I cope when I have lost what I used to hold dear?

    I totally understand you. Like when I was going through all the mess I was, and I wrote this poem, I just started thinking"What am I going to do?" You know?
