I couldn't live without you, but I might just have to.

by Cassidy   Nov 29, 2007


Everything you say
I replay
slower and slower
trying to comprehend

and I do,
but I'm not sure I want to.

I am scared
scared I will lose you .
chills streak through my back
my eyes swell with tears

to know you feel this way
makes me cringe inside
I don't know how you could leave me
I don't understand
how calm you can be

I'm not quite sure what to say ,
as you repeat yourself.

fears
of being forever without you
brings me to
tears.

you are my best friend
I can't just sit here and let you give up
let you destroy everything good
I cant sit here and watch you die
on the inside.

but there is nothing else I can honestly do
except for love you.

    Hey. I really like this.
    It kind of goes through the stages of losing a friend, and what might go through your head - without getting too technical.
    It was pretty simple, but I think that's what I liked about it. Emotion doesn't need to be complex, or made any harder to understand. Especially since it's hard to really get into someone's head/heart anyway.
    However, in saying this, I think it would be stronger if your poem title wasn't so long. It's like you give the meaning away in the title, and I no longer have the need to open up and read the poem.
    I don't know, I think if it was a smaller title it would let your poem stand by itself, instead of the title.
    Good job though. :)
