This Poem is about someone that you can't live without, but you can wish you could. Not all feelings of adoration are asked for or wanted.

As Always, any critique is welcome.

Not Wanted

A few days without you

More like years, perhaps lifetimes

Relentless time without you

Like breathing underwater

Every breath meant to kill

Time is sometimes important

But not always wanted.

Maybe your absence wouldn't hurt so badly

If you didn't have to be so perfect

If I could find a flaw

I could exploit it

But there are none.

Why do you have to do that?

As much as it pains me to admit it

I need you

Everyone grows used to being alone

And then you had to save me

Why did you have to?

Thank you
