Dedeepya Korukonda Poet Free verse

I know I said NO

It's 3 AM 
On the 23rd of March, 
Not even a full day
After I said no
I know 
I said it
But I just don't know 
Why you never came back
You promised to never be tired of me
To never leave 
And to never give up on me
You said you won't be like men before

I broke you so many times 
You always got back together 
Made me feel warmer happier 
And made me find my peace
But somewhere in between 
You were losing you
Maybe, I believe so 
I am glad you left me too
Not this time when I said break up
But last time 
The very first time 
You said
You were done with me
Maybe that was the moment 
I lost the love of my life 
I lost the one I wanted to be for life
I lost my best friend 
I lost my biggest cheer leader 
I lost my one person, I always go back to 
For good or bad, for sharing a bit of happiness 
Or a bitter sad story

Ughh!! 
I listened to the goodnight you sent me months ago, 
Glad I didn't delete the texts, 
But somehow 
A story without starting with a “so" 
Was hard to find online as well 
I just couldn't sleep 
I know I said no, 
And I should have struck with it 
The very first time I said it 
Now it's no, 
But holds so much I never knew 
I could give anyone 
I didn't just lose a somebody in my life 
I lost a fine moment and man from my life
A void no one can ever fill 
A void I can never get out from
Not anymore 
But I know the no I said 
Means a lot more 
I respect that and yeah, 
maybe 
I am done
 
Or we are both just done too
Finally.
