Do you still begin to laugh
when you watch the video
and look at the photograph?

Of that night when we danced
like there was no rest
That night I forgot what its like
to be second best

Does your body still fill with butterflies?
Do your eyes still begin to wet
when you remember that night
when we first met?

Well, today you flew back
to your home and to your guy
But ill have no regrets
when I look to that sky

Time cheated us once again
we knew this day would suck
But Im not saying "goodbye"

Nice flow. I like this one.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

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. ©
