The One That Got Away

I loved the sadly taipered moments.
I loved the way you gazed at me.
I loved the dark and blissful journey.
I loved the comfort of your touch.
I loved the most romantic night of my life.
And you were the reason I loved it.
I didn't see how much you meant to me.
I didn't understand that I need you.
I didn't know then that it was perfect.
I didn't realize that it was all so simple.
I didn't listen to my heart.
And now I hear it louder than ever.
I was absorbed in being a social butterfly.
I was conceited and caught up in vanity.
I was inconsiderate, heartless and selfish.
I was wrong when I took you for granted.
I was foolish to let us slip away so fast.
And now I am so sorry.
I could still be holding your hand.
I could look into your eyes.
I could taste your perfect kiss.
I could still stand by your side.
I could have had something with you.
But could have means in the past.
I am usually clear minded.
I am normally at ease.
I am petrified that you'll no longer want me.
I am so worried you'll never come back.
I am fond of butterflies.
But not when they churn inside my stomach.
I have you on my mind.
I have obvious and deep regret.
I have dreams about you still.
I have my priorities straight now.
I have a place in my heart for you and you alone.
But will I ever have you again?

Very good! This piece has more substance than most poems I've read. I can completely relate too. Keep it up! |

Very well written. It well describes love that has passed. In deep regret I think I stand in the same side of the river as you. But I hope not.
Take care, my friend.
