What Might Have Been

"A brief poem on a single relationship"

When I saw you standing there
my heart stopped
all events cleared that day
I view you as perfect
yet imperfect
your movements were like grace
I dreamed only that which showed
my life altered from one to another
In a second
there you was know not what
was to be and was not to be
You was you, and I me
lost there on after
When you looked at me my heart stopped
when you spoke to me I ask how
it was relationship never to happen
yet my feeling left me here
with nothing
How I long to touch your body
to look down at your eyes and say “I love you”
But yet I failed you
I disowned you, left you free
so much hate but love
growing at the same rate
it’s now that I see who I am
and what I lost those day s
what is to come from this
you have your life and I my own
I wish you was here
Here to listen to my cries of being alone
I think about what might have been
would it be better than this
or will it fail
till that day I see you again
my heart will only bleed for your love
they say love at first sight
yet one can never know
and was me who messed it up
never again will the world judge me as me
my life filled with lies
and dreams corrupt therein
when you looked in my eyes
the world started and stopped
at the same time
