It's Complicated Poem by Sandra Santana Rivera

When you left,
It felt good …
All the peace
all the quiet

But as days passed
I started feeling…
All alone
All upset

I lost interest…
In my work
In my friends

I must confess…
I am so sad
I am so mad

Can’t anybody see…
I want you here
I want you near.

I am sure our path will…
Cross again
Soon again.


You are not here

I don’t know how to handle myself
I am smiling but inside I am dying

My head says what a relief! (but)
My heart is in constant grief!

Everything is the same. (but)
Nothing feels the same.

I don’t want you here (but)
I want you very near.

Another time
Another place

We could have been
The best of friends.
