love poems : Questions of Why

For the first time in a long time,
I felt so happy, so rejoiced
You came to me when I was in dire need of a shoulder.
You showed me there was hope after tragedy.
You became my bestfriend.

The times we laughed and the times we shared
Were priceless beyond anything I could imagine
We never knew the meaning of uncertainty and difficulty
I showed you what it was like to be a fool, a good fool
And in return, you taught me new ways of life

The more we connected, the more we grew as people, friends and partners
You made me feel like I could trust and love again
Words uttered out of your mouth that made me feel safe and wanted
"Love is not a strong enough word to describe how I feel. I adore you really"
I was caught.

My problems were yours as yours were mine
Blooming into something so deep, something so special
We were blinded by nothing but each other
The hours turned to days and days turned to months
Promises were never broken and feelings seem to flourish
This was real. So I thought...

Just as everything was going so well
The distance began to win our battle of being together
Drifting apart, we dedicated ourselves to making this work
We tried and tried. And just as everything was returning to they way they were
Love, devotion, and adorement
You vanished into thin air as if you were just a dream

To this day, my mind wonders how could something so strong be defeated so easily
No words could express the confusion, the doubt, the feeling of foolishness
That runs through me as time goes by with an answer of Why?
The last question left unanswered:
Were you real or were you just one of my needs?

That is something that needs to be answered
One day, one lifetime
Very soon
I promise!
