Letters To You (Poetry Collection)

Half Alive

Until you come back,

I might as well be dead

Because when you're not here,

I can't catch my breath.

It hurts so bad just knowing you're gone for a little while;

But still, I lie to everyone

By saying "I'm fine" with a fake smile.

Some days are so rough

I can hardly hold up my head

Because I've left so many

Countless words unsaid.

But then I look into your unique blue eyes and that's where I find peace.

You take away all the pain.

You rescue me.

Until you come back,

I don't know how I'll survive.

Because while you're gone,

I'm only half alive.
