Needing You

---

I feel just like a small puppy,
Who has lost everything so painfully.

I feel just like a tiny baby girl,
Who needs someone to love and care for her.

I feel just like my whole life is over,
There is no more reason for me to live forever.

I remember the times that we had shared.
Those instances when it seemed like you cared.

All those words of wisdom that you whispered,
That gave me peace at night to watch the stars as they glittered.

I remember how you would gently take my hand,
So I would never fall into the quicksand.

Did you think I would be able to forget,
How from laughter all our words turned to regret.

Did you think I would ever hate you so,
That I would push you away and just go.

Did you really detest me to the extent,
That you do not even allow me a chance to repent.

Can you really bear to leave me and go away,
Taking all the memories since I have no more say.

Can you not even turn at look at me,
Because even in the darkness you will see.

All you have left me now is hurt and pain,
As I stand there trying to let it all go with the rain.

Please, if I were to ask you ever so pleasantly,
Would you ever come back to me?

This is the modified piece of a poem given to me by a friend to help me with my portfolio. I do believe the original poet was a Jasmine, but almost everything has been changed, so most of it is mine.
