I Lost Someone I Loved

I wrote this poem about a friend that I lost. I had written this on another support website, so I decided to write it here too.


Tears

One day here, one day there, one day he's missing and here comes my tears.
I saw the signs each and everyday, but I never knew how to help him and in what way.
I loved his smile, the smell of his clothes
The light in his eyes, and the fuzzy hair on his toes.
I know this sounds silly, but I think it's true
When people say losing someone is a feeling like you've never knew.
I saw his smile everyday, so I never expected him to pass away.
But behind that smile was depression and tears
A feeling of hopelessness, pain, and fears.
If only the world wasn't so mean
If only his co-workers had learned not to be so obscene
Maybe their parents didn't teach them the right away
Or maybe their hearts had simply turned gray.
Whatever the reason, I miss him a lot.
He confessed his love the day before, despite being so distraught.
I secretly liked him, and he secretly liked me, but I was too shy to put my foot in that sea.
Looking back, I wonder why.
Why I couldn't tell him how I wanted him more than the sky.
But I'll never forget how I felt
When his arms were around me and how he made my heart melt.
Maybe he knew I'd cry
Maybe he really thought that no one would care if he committed suicide.
But nonetheless, I loved him so and each and everyday he made my love grow.
One day here, one day there, one day he's missing and here comes my tears.
If only I knew what was to come, maybe we'd be sitting together now
Married and looking back on where we came from.
