Alison's blog: "My Poetry"

Mean This Much To Me

I know this wasn't meant to be

And that I could be on my way

But I won't leave until you see

Every reason I need to stay

I would stop breathing without you

I need you to push me along

Without you I wouldn't make it through

Because with you is where I belong

I know it's hard for you to believe

That you mean this much to me

But it's time for you to leave

So I guess you'll never see

My heart stops beating when you're gone

I need to learn to live on my own

I have to figure out what's going on

It turns out I've always been alone

I always thought I needed you

But it seems as though I was wrong

So now I think we're finally through

Because now I know where I belong

So now it's time to say goodbye

I hope that life treats you right

I know I won't have to cry

Because now you're out of sight
