Start Over Again

A poem about a life experience. A poem about change...

Chasing you down every night and day

Over and over I feel this way

But am I the only one to blame

Falling harder each day

I can't even say I try

Over and over I feel this way

But perhaps we are equally to blame

Coming from two different worlds like night and day

Over and over I can't help it I just feel this way

All the sadness, regret, remorse are all mine to take blame

Fighting I try to get away

But find myself instead chasing you down every day

And you don't even try

"I know what's best for me" I tell myself each day

But all I want is you anyway

Over and over I'll try all I can to make you want to stay

But I won't make you feel like you are the one to blame

So many thoughts run through my head throughout each day

Wishing you could feel this way

Over and over I'll keep falling harder and harder and I don't even try

But we can't start over again and I am to blame

this piece really touched me. I can tell is about someone that meant or means a lot to you and that you feel the guilt of losing them. I feel like I can relate so much to this. I love it, well written and perfectly expressed.

Great structure. I'm a big fan in my poetry in repeating themes in the final sentence of a stanza, and the way you do in this is fantastic. You don't have many pieces out right now, but you are for sure someone to keep an eye on, this is a great piece.

You sound like you are trying to convince yourself that you’re to blame... I don’t know. I think when you chuck it all in a pot and cook it down... communication is to blame... imho
