Another Minute — A Poem

by | Nov 21, 2022 | Poetry | 0 comments

Another minute,
Another hour,
The words I say
It doesn’t matter

You’re all around me
But nowhere near
I can’t go on
I won’t live here
Not without you

Another minute,
Another hour,
The things I do
It doesn’t matter

I try to breathe
But why take in air?
It won’t bring you back
It can’t put you here
My one desire

Another minute,
Another hour,
It’s all the same
It doesn’t matter

It should have been me
But never you
Too much to live for
So much to do
A story left untold
