Poems For Life

I Should've Told You

I don't like it.

I've told you before,

At least in my head.

It doesn't make sense,

How can you be dead?

I should've told you sooner,

That I worried in my sleep.

I had dreams of you falling,

Out of my grasps.

Or maybe the other way around.

It doesn't matter,

Either way we fell apart,

I cried out for you in my dream.

I screamed your name from a cell,

Hoping for help.

I cried my eyes out,

And woke with a tear,

What did that mean?

I woke with a fear,

That you would leave me,

In the depths of my dispare.

The dream still haunts me,

Even when you are there.

Worried you will depart,

And leave me in the dark.

Just like the dream,

I should've told you sooner,

Before you had to leave,

without saying goodbye.
