Why So Sad?
Why am I sad?
No I'm glad,
You still talk to me.
Are you still mad?
Angry words we had,
I pushed you away I see.
When I'm with you
My heart feels true,
I enjoy when you say we.
But I'm not blue
We are not through
I will us both be happy
Here I sit
Sad and shit
Because I hurt your soul
I bare and grit
Each kiss a hit,
A drug that makes me whole
You are my friend
Time that we spend,
Far longer than a while
Letters I send
Fix words that offend,
I give my all to see you smile.
About this poem
My girlfriend asked me why it is I always seem sad when she's around. It wasn't her that made me sad, it was that I wanted to be with her all the time. I'd be sad when I realized that eventually the date would end and I'd go back to my dark lonely house.
