Love Poem: Behind

Behind

Tonight I stay late at the office listening to my heartbeat.
I wach the rain drops hit the window from my seat.
Behind this desk I hide.
Lately its been downing on me.
My life left me behind.
The only way I can find it again is to rewind.
To many nights at the office
What’s a husband to do?
But run to his best friend whose been true.
He needs someone to tell what he’s been thru.
I’m missing the love I’ve never knew.
It’s not his fault she was there,
I was always too busy to care.
Lately its been dawning on me.
My life left me behind.
The only way I can find it again is to rewind.
I think it’s the kids I miss the most.
When it comes to them I’m like a ghost.
The only thing they wanted is me.
I was to blind to see.
Behind this desk I hide.
Lately its been dawning on me my life’s leaving me behind.
The only way back is to rewind.
I only have memories behind.
