here we are on day one
of me being alone
as we move into day two
lo and behold, she's still gone
bring on day three
the buckling knees
four, five, and six
not sure i'll make it
all the sudden seven
how can i even
make it to eight
what can i say
day nine and ten
i sink deeper in
thinking back to day one
what could i have done
to hold tighter to
love i thought was true
this time around
riddled with doubt
questioning myself
down for the count
