AN: You see, there was this little poetry thing I had to for my English class. I wrote a poem (it's just a little below this author note, trust me), and handed it into my English teacher, thinking nothing of it. I thought it was a nice poem.
But I never knew it'd be such a good fanpoem if I just tweaked it a little. Now, it tells a story in itself, and now it's an IZ poem. My first poem for a fandom. Neat, huh? ^_^;
I Want You Back
It's been a week since you leftBefore then, I had never known true emptiness
The overwhelming desire to find you
It almost too much to bear
But is it worth it to go after you?
I never knew what love was until I found you
But you don't feel the same way
And that is why you left.
You left because of me
And my feelings for you
I guess I should have never have told you
Though, it was bothering me, I had to say it
Like I had said it in all of my dreams
Dreams that were deftly shattered that night
I made my confession of love to you
Do you have any idea how much it hurt me?
To see the revulsion in your eyes?
To see the undisguised hate you had for me?
It was too much to bear.
I felt so bad that I had cried myself to sleep that night
I never cry, I hate crying.
It's the ultimate sign of weakness to me
I just can't wait to see you again
So I can apologize for telling you what I felt
I would to anything to see you
To hear you
To touch you
Even if it would be the simplest of glances
The softest whisper
Or the slightest touch
All that matters to me is that you come back
Where did you go, anyway?
I can't seem to find any clues.
I have to see you again
And it has to happen for real, not in a dream
Even if it's for the briefest of moments
So that my broken heart can heal
Just a little bit faster,
Just a little bit better.
I love you, and you hated me for it.
That's the thing, even though you hated me
I loved you—and I still love you
Broken hearts go away with time
But my feelings and your reactions to them,
Will never go away
So maybe I should just end it all
For these things will drive me insane with sadness
A sadness I can never be able to bear
If I learn to ignore them, maybe I can go on
But how does one go about that?
Forgetting about their unrequited love?
The simple answer is that you can't.
You just learn to live with it
But I still want you back
I still want to see you
Maybe I will, and if I do
I will be looking forward to it.
All I can do is hope
Hope that I see you
Hope that you might understand
And I hope, most definitely, that you just talk to me
It's a lonely place here
Without you to fight with
And if you don't come back,
I'll find you, to see you one more time
To hear your voice one more time.
I want you back, and I don't care if you don't love me
I just want you back
And if you do come back, I'll never let you go
I can't even stand the thought of losing you twice
Even if it is just a thought
I want you back, Zim
And I'm praying with all my heart
That you'll come back soon
Dib sighed and placed the notebook under his bed. He missed Zim, with all his heart. And like he had said in his poem, he was the reason why Zim had left. He just had to be. There was no other reason as to why Zim left.
Dib sighed and turned off his light, settling himself in his bed. He wished he knew where Zim was. Maybe he could finally find him again… He had to apologize to Zim. For everything he had done and said to the alien.
Dib just hoped that it wasn't too late, like he thought he did.
AN: ^_^;;;; I just had to add that little bit at the end. More story, you know? Well, go and review, all you lovely little people who like me.
