Mel's Poems

Miss you

You are like that book I can't put down. I say one more chapter, and I will lay down. Next thing I know, I am half way threw. This was a book I thought I would never put down. But here I am sitting here without the book I once loved.

I used to go one hundred miles per hour every second, what a fast ending to a slow beginning. It took me a long time to build the courage to pick that book back up after what happened. Even though I knew we were threw, I still missed you. The long conversations and all of the looks you gave me from across the room.

I know I wrinkled some pages going through. I now know that I should've taken my time when I was taking care of you. The thing is that it was hard taking care of something so delicate when I felt like breaking down at any second. So I ruined you while I was trying to shield myself with a hard cover. Now you are gone, and I miss you.

I browsed the selves a couple of times read a couple of short stories, but nothing compares to you. Now we are threw. A book I thought I would never put down is no longer in my life. The book taught me my lesson, and now it is time for me to find a new one. You were my favorite chapter. I will always miss you.
