She Will Return Poem by Anne Jones

The time has come where she must say goodbye
It is not forever but feels like eternity
I spend my days counting down the minutes and the hours of each passing day
'Why is this so hard
I have to continue to tell myself she will be back
You will not be left alone

I watch and wait each day waiting for a sign to know she is thinking about me
Wondering how I am doing and If I am ok
Does she really care or am I just another person

I wait patiently for her return.
Feeling anxious and nervous with each passing day
Not wanting to do anything but to stay in bed just so the time passes by quickly
The tolerence I have for people is limited and just want to scream and let out all of my frustrations
Wondering why this is so difficult.
Life shouldn't be this hard to handle on my own
Find some peace and know there is an end to this period of time
that is causing me pain and discomfort
She will return
