HER POEM

HER POEM

This is your poem though many years too late,

My only hope is with these words you can relate.

Your heart was once where I lay my head,

But fate brought on unforeseen circumstances instead.

I try not to think about the pain inside,

Sorry I wasn’t perfect and my flaws I could not hide.

Always thinking we’d make it through,

You were my first love, my only love to be true.

We were just kids when we met,

And so much about life we hadn’t learned yet.

I often wonder about what’s become of you,

I’m sure somewhere along the line you do so too.

Since you left, my life has changed in so many ways,

I now know why I struggled in our final days.

I no longer blame you for not sticking around,

Nor have I for years now, you had to stand your ground.

I know you’ve found a new love, my hope is that its true,

Your dreams and ambitions I pray that they have found you.

As for me, I’m doing alright,

Although the weight of this world often makes it difficult to sleep at night.

I still have so far to go,

Still have so much to do,

Always remember our love and that this poem is for you.
