Homesick

By Katie L.

We've been through everything
The dark,
The sun,
The blindness that knows tomorrow.

And you want to leave me?
I don't want to leave you.
I love you.
Was that my mistake?

Or how about when I let myself miss you?
Is that where I went wrong?
Or when I came back to you?
Was that my fatal flaw?

I won't fling any more questions,
Wild accusations.
I love you. I miss you the way you were.
"Who says it's better to have loved and lost?

I wish that I had never loved at all."
