What Would It Be Like (Poem)

What Would It Be Like

What would life be like,
If I never knew your name?
What would it be like,
If I never saw your face?
Would I find someone else?
Would I be better off?
Would my heart still be crushed,
And shattered,
And broken in two?
Would I cry every night
And wish you were here?
Would I have learned that not everything is as it seems?
Knowing you has been an experience.
Through it I have gained so much.
Yet, I have lost even more.
Why can it not be like it was before,
When I didn’t worry what you thought of me?
You don’t miss me,
But I miss you.
I wish to have the days back
When we laughed and cried together.
As every second passes,
The memories get further and further away.
I hate the empty feeling.
The ripped, bleeding wound I feel in me.
I gave you my heart,
To love and to cherish.
You took it from me,
And broke it in pieces.
This is for the better,
I don’t have to worry.
There’s one last thing to say,
And it is, “I’m sorry.”
