Months Ago

Months Ago

Four months ago.
I danced with you under the starless night,
But the shining of our eyes replaced
Those stars and shone even brighter.

Four months ago.
We lay in each other's arms.
Smiles in our eyes and warmth in our hearts.
We fell in love and we weren't letting go.

Three months ago.
I'm crying and shaking, alone.
I'm afraid of losing you
And hoping you care.

Three months ago.
You redeem yourself.
I'm in your arms gazing into your loving eyes
I won't let go of you.

Two months ago.
I'm alone again
Wanting you back.
I can't live without you.

Two months ago.
I'm in your arms for a second time.
You tell me you love me
And I love you, too.

One month ago.
I'm still in your warm embrace,
Holding on, not letting go, but,
I feel you falling.

One month ago.
You let me go
Crying and alone.
Our love is dead.

Now
I'm moving on from you,
Finding my way on this path of life.
I'll never forget you, my love.

[The Dudeman (Kenneth T)]

"Strange what desire will make foolish people do." - From the song Wicked Game, by Chris Issak. Love can make us hold on, even when reason tells us to let go. Even though there are no right answers, I'm glad you did the hard thing by moving on, but refusing to deny your feelings. Too many people wish to forget everything after a break-up. As for the poem itself, I liked the timeline style. It was the perfect frame for your story, and you conveyed your feelings well at each point.
