Now That Your Gone

I want you to go
I want you to stay
I want you to leave me alone
I want you to talk
I want you to care
But all I feel is pain to the bone
I want you to laugh
I want you to cry
I want you to sing me a song
I want you to fight
I want you to love
But how can you now that you're gone

Very sad poem. I like the way it is though, it has the power to stir emotions in another person.
