why can't we be together

By: Alayna Marie Stevenson

I miss you and you miss me, why can't we be together

every day together always always!! Why does it have to be

this way? Why can't we be together every day together

always always- I don't understand why I feel this way

I don't understand the pain I feel- why can't we be

together everyday together always always. I cry every night

when I think of you you- it makes me so sad that I can't

see you. I look at your picture every night- it's not fair

it's not fair. Why can't we be together everyday together

every day forever forever forever!!!!


I wrote this poem to my uncle when I was in the 4th grade
cause he was in jail for 3 months and I was really sad
'cause he is like my dad and it made me really sad
'cause he couldn't be there for my birthday. So I hope
everyone enjoys it 'cause I know he did!! I am now 14
years old and it has been awhile and I think it is really
good for having been written by a fourth grader!!!!
