A Love To Carry

I can see your thoughts wondering if you’re making all the right moves,

In you wanting to see matters out; like if to yourself you got so much more to prove? 

But in my prayers you have continuously remained the only one, 

However, it has been clearly written by you that the visions of you are truly done! 

Not by my choice, I’m just playing out the hand I was dealt, 

Not to ever feel your warmth, your kindness, and so many other matters upon you that I 
have never felt, 

Do you still wonder or envision yourself with me or did I already leave your thoughts? 

Does that void for me still exist or is there no vacancy for me within your heart? 

Can I show you all that you mean to me or should I let all of that just go?

I told you how strongly I feel for you so in that I’m glad that you know! 

I cannot lie to you my dear; because of you I do feel so much pain,

To think of this trapped love I have for you I can only hope that one day we could share in it 
the same! 

There is nothing else I can say nor is there anything left for me to do? 

I can only end my words, on telling you how much I am in love with you! 

I’m on the verge right now on making a serious change in my life, 

I just hope my past mistake remains just that; because I don’t want to live it twice! 

So whenever you close your eyes at night does the thought of me ever pops into your head?

I think you’ll never truly understand the love I have for you; not until I’m gone and dead,

So on that, I’ll leave you with this note my dear and that’s to embrace life as within it that 
you see, 

We are on different charter plateaus my dear; but it is the love for you that I shall forever 
carry along with me! 

                  “Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say 
so”
