That’s what we all want, just to be loved
But I have to ask why wasn’t I enough
Why couldn’t I make you happy alone
I hate that I still wish it’s you on the phone
You hurt me and I know that you didn’t mean to
But that can’t help the fact that you do
All I wanted was for you to love me
But now I feel like I’m drifting at sea
The land is too far and your love is farther
Maybe I should have just loved you harder
But I’ll never know cause you’re gone and I’m here
I’m lost in my doubts and drowning in fear
goodbye my old friend, I’ll miss you the most
but my hope is all gone and I am it’s ghost
the safety of land is fading from view
I hate that my last thoughts on earth are of you
Something wrong with this poem?

I'm a Grad student now studying Biochemistry and Biophysics (not sure how I got there). I guess I've been using this site for nearly 8 years now though sometimes I went years without writing much of anything. I write what I feel and I write what I need to let go of. Sometimes I write about a dream or a nightmare I had, If I can tell the difference. I fell in love for poetry in high school and continued to write in college. I hope to publish a book someday as well (leave a comment if a poem speaks to you). P.S. My Instagram is @CottonCandyPoems
