In my life I have had but one regret And that is not taking you When I had the chance In my life I have had but one fear And that was that I Would wait too long To hold you near And that you would be gone And of course I did And you are I blew it I am a joke And I think you knew it Now nothing looks as good Or tastes as sweet And it won’t Unless we finally meet Can’t you see What this is doing to me? I am a wreck A flaming pile Don’t you know That I would do anything Just to see you smile? I cannot go on Living in this hell A malicious torment That I know very well My love is a hefty burden A heavy, heavy load I keep to myself What should have been told Won’t you listen To my solemn sorrow? Will you still Talk to me tomorrow? Is there not A shred of hope? I am constantly Sliding down This fickle slope Am I writing in vain? Will it never Be the same? You have slipped between my fingers Like sand in an hourglass Time If only I could Turn back The hands of time I long for the days When you felt What I do What I have Since I first saw you Has your love For me died? If so, why? I need to know What you feel I know we could have Something real Now it’s your turn Tell me if your fire Still burns I can only hope
Seemed to drag on a little towards the end... Not the style I usually enjoy but I did this one, it's good
I hear you, this is actually the longest piece I've written so far. There's parts I like and some I don't. I'll probably cut some out. Anyway, thank you for your input, I appreciate it.
No problem I'm sure a lot of people will be able to relate to it; I know I can, and after reading it again more carefully I find that it's better than I first thought. With just a little work it could have more quality.
