The rainfalls outside my window
And all I see is you
Taken away as I run
Left behind because I believed
You could find someone better to love
Someone better to love you
And I dunno if im alright
I dunno who I am without you
All I know is that you’re gone
Out of my life
And as the rain trickles down the window
It matches the tears on my face
The tears I cry for you
Because I love you
I know you can’t understand this
The seven-page note I left for you
Will bring you pain
But won’t shed any light on why I took flight
And If I told you
I know you’d hate me
It’d cause you to hurt more
And I don’t ever want to do that to you
And I dunno if im alright
I dunno who I am without you
All I know is that you’re gone
Out of my life
But never out of sight
I have your picture with me
Tucked away in the journal you gave me
‘I love you forever and always’
Inscribed inside
A memory of another time
A tear hits the paper
And I remember our last kiss
It was just yesterday
On a day like this
You took my hand and held it tight
We stood in the road
In the rain
And you kissed me
Not knowing that by tomorrow
I’d be gone
And I dunno if im alright
I dunno who I am without you
All I do know is that
You’ll find someone better to love you

Wow
That was amazing... this poem strikes a cord with me because, right now, i feel the same way! nothing is worse than knowing that in your attempt to love someone extraordinary, your love falls incredibly short. thanks for verbalising my thoughts!
