When You Walk Away

People leaving can be hard

By Dana SheridanPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Each time I see you I know it's not for long

then the dreary days go on and on

you walk away and I feel the tears

It hurts

when you walk away I feel so alone

when you walk away I don't feel at home

I feel like a bird who cannot fly

I feel like I cannot touch the sky

my best days are when I'm with you

when you walk away I walk away too

I know we can text or call or write

but it's not enough

I want to see you all the time

yet our worlds are hard to align

I need you

when you walk away I can barely breathe

when you walk away I feel less like me

I need you here to feel safe

I need you here to make me stay

alive

is how I feel around you all the time

you might not see it 'cuz it's hard to find

the darkness that comes when you walk away

it will always be there from day to day

when you walk away who I am is gone

when you walk away time goes on

so please don't walk away

I need you in my life

Hi. My Name is Dana and I am 18. I love writing. I mainly enjoy writing things that are emotionally strong and so I tend to lean more towards Poetry. I post most of my poems on Wattpad or instagram but I wanted to do more with it.
