Lost

Lost

A Poem by Douglas Levi Gribbins

Little did you know my heart can't beat forever
And I can't be everywhere
I hope you know love's a great endeavor
I don't expect you to care

You were once like an angel from heaven
And i'd once beg you to stay
I remember us on the phone past eleven
I'd cherish every word you would say

But I know time will pass
I know what we had was great
I'm aware that all that is the past
God just had to give it to me straight

Memories of days gone by are beautifully reflected in your words.

The second stanza is splendid. This is a very different poem of urs and very relatable too. It describes nothing dark and has everything to do with normal human beings. And yes, things happen. They just do.

A sad and honest poem for the disappointment of love.
"But I know time will pass
I know what we had was great
I'm aware that all that is the past
God just had to give it to me straight"
It does take time and separation to heal. Belief also. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
