The Days Without You. Poem by Laeloni Nichole

(Jennifer)

'I can't do this anymore.' That's what I read as I held my phone in my hand. Heart racing. I couldn't breathe. This was the love of my life that i'd just lost. No matter how much I tried, the arguing just wouldn't stop between us. I fell back into my bed. Grasping my pillow into my arms, i cried hysterically. Crying myself to sleep.

(Josh)

I couldn't take it anymore. It was like we weren't even in love anymore. For the past month and a half, we'd just been arguing. Trying to make each other jealous, and telling each other we hate one another. I don't know what to do anymore to make her happy. I had to end it. I just want her to be happy. And it seems i can't be the person to do that, make her happy.

It's 3 in the morning and I'm waking up. All i can think about is Josh. I found my phone on the floor. Rushing i picked it up, checking to see if i got a message from Josh again. But there wasn't any message what-so-ever. I couldn't believe it. We were really over. The best 6 months of my life was now over, and i was now single and alone. I cried again, making myself fall asleep all over again. I wanted to die so bad at this moment.
