Array ( [sid] => 140471 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Night Memories. [time] => 2008-02-18 11:37:20 [hometext] => About a girl that I changed my mind about too late. [bodytext] => I remember that night
you fell in love with me
cold fingers intertwined,
a shared blanket.
closer than friends
should be,
easily blamed on
lack of sleep,
excuses made.

I remember that night,
2 AM, on the phone
some summer night.
gathered up my courage,
asked you out.
You turned me down,
unsure of your place
on the orientation spectrum.

I remember that night,
so much like the first,
except this one ending
with my confused outburst of
“I can’t do this!”
Feigning sleep,
couldn’t face your tears.

I remember that night,
talking on the phone,
“You asked me out?”
“I would have said yes.”
Regretful.
circumstances change.
now I’m the one that’s scared.

I remember that night,
after hearing of the revelation
that is your new girlfriend.
boiling with jealousy,
hard to sleep that night.

I remember those nights,
talking late
hours pass,
only to fall asleep
to the sound of your breathing.

I remember yesterday,
touching you
every chance I got,
couldn’t be too blatantly obvious.

Now, hating what I’ve done,
put her through enough,
put yourself through too much.
pain, confusion, feeling,
resurfacing.

Deep Emotional Release.....

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
