Another Day Gone By

by Nikki Z   Jul 10, 2007


Am I just a memory to you now?
Something that happened in your past?
Like I'm no longer a person?
Just an image in your head?

I don't understand how you can do this
Maybe I never will
How you were able to move on
And I can't seem to still

I know it's been a long time
I should be over it by now
So why do I still find myself
Crying over you at all?

I hate myself for missing you
Because you don't miss me
Not even as a friend
You're doing just fine without me

I'm sitting here in the dark
I can't get you off my mind
I'm just waiting for the tears to fall
And maybe sleep tonight

But even when I fall asleep
Then again I find you
Because you haunt my every dream
I can't seem to escape you

Every day I hope and wish
Today will be the day
You will speak to me again
Chase my pain away

Maybe this is why
Night time is the hardest
Because another day is ending
And once again you've said nothing

I'm sure you won't respond to this
It won't even cross your mind
You will look and see it's me again
But I can't help but try

I'm sorry that I act this way
That I won't just leave you alone
I hope you won't hate me for it
I promise someday I'll move on

But as for now it's killing me
Slowly I'm dying inside
Wishing you were here with me
Even just for one night

It's getting harder to remember
How it felt
When I'd lay beside you
How you made my heart and soul just melt

I'm sorry for doing this
For writing yet another poem
But it's the only way I know
To let my pain go

Once again tonight
I find myself alone
Yet another day gone by
You never called my phone.

    Great poem and i know it hurts, but you gotta get over it. Everything happens for a reason and you might miss your good reason waiting on him

    OMG Nikki!!.. You made me cry!!!..... This is exactly what I’m currently feeling and what I’m going through, so needless to say I can totally relate to what you are saying..

    “Am I just a memory to you now?
    Something that happened in your past?”

    “I hate myself for missing you
    Because you don't miss me
    Not even as a friend
    You're doing just fine without me”

    “But even when I fall asleep
    Then again I find you
    Because you haunt my every dream
    I can't seem to escape you

    ”Every day I hope and wish
    Today will be the day
    You will speak to me again
    Chase my pain away”

    A beautiful expression of your emotion.. an excellent write.. please keep them coming.
