I'm sorry darlin'

Author: cafetwo2010

I'm sorry darlin'
Never knew what I
had
til..
I lost you..
It took so long
for me to change..
to understand..
I wander through these
streets tormented with
what could have been..
Remember those days
darlin?'
I guess I have no right
to say these things..
I drink a bit to much
these days but it helps
dull the pain..
I saw you with your new
guy the other day..
You seem so happy..
What can I say?
Leaning on this lamp post
I light a damp cigarette
in the pouring rain..
In all this rain no one
notices my tears..
On Thursday's I hang out
on the old bridge where
first met..
Remember those days darlin?'
You were so beautiful to me..
Why must I pay such a terrible
price?
What was I thinking?
What was anything precious?
Do you know?
Do you have any idea I my
heart burns with grief laying
on my bed?
But I must go on..
I must do something..
If God could reach down into
your heart and make you see
all my pain..my sorrow..
my emptiness..
If only my love..if only.
Just give me one more chance
to look into your eyes and
say what needs to be said..
Please darlin.' let me kneel
before you and say..
I'm sorry darlin.'

Hi Cafe

It's one of life's great truths that you never miss the water till the well runs dry.

I fancy we have all lived and loved, and with love - some you win and some you lose. That's life.

Personally, I think the worst scenario of all for any couple is when one has fallen out of love whilst the other tries to cling on to a lost cause.

Best all round, however hard it is, is to accept the roll of the dice and move on. However, you write with great delicacy and feeling here.

Best wishes

Bill

Dear Cafe, I think, it's a fine dramatic piece, I imagine you delivering this poem in a theater! An excellent write!

Hi, cafetwo2010,
You seem so happy.. is a nice way to view someone you love. It is sad when the viewer cannot share in that happiness. When saying I'm sorry darlin.' is no longer an option, lovers must accept and learn to forgive themselves. When it is an option, go for it!

Ty Gnj** Another wise insight from you dear.Thanks much..
