GONE- feeling poemy
GONE Was it a year ago or longer? When we met and made memories Memories as sharp as a double edged dagger You were my first date and first kiss What a high those moments were! I was a fool to think that it could ever last Even the best of us have to leave But I stayed Hell, I wanted you gone quickly Maybe, I thought, it wouldn’t hurt. What a hole you left in my heart Indeed, no promises were made No, not one But that doesn’t stop me, you know Spending my nights drowning my pillow. So it was all coming to an end I wouldn’t have let it all go so fast Now, just like footsteps on the shore Washed away by one angry wave The past, with its promises of the future is all gone. R. Brown.
