Till you've lost it


When you've got something, 

like a parent or something, 

or maybe a pet of some sort. 

you like it. and stuff.

And then you lose it. 

And it suddenly becomes the most important thing. 

It's the one thing that clouds your mind.

taunting your emotions 

in a way that makes you angry

but hten your reminded of their love, and you cry.

cry about it all.

cry about the pain

the happiness

the misunderstanding,

and you don't care what people say.

they don't understand, 

and they won't understand. 

becuase all relationships are different. 

but we all know that once we lose it,

we appreciate it. 

but when we have it

it doesn't matter.
