If only

If only I had told you of

the thoughts that filled my mind,

the plans we would have made,

the maps we would have drawn,

the places we would have visited,

the paths we would have walked,

the sunsets we would have seen,

the fun we would have experienced,

the times we would have celebrated,

the songs we would have danced to,

the poetry we would have written,

the life we would have lived,

the affection we would have shared

 

If only -

 

I had said more than just,

I love you

Hind sight is 20/20 as they say. Communication is key in any relationship. I am sure many will identify with your words in this one. Lydi**

I get this, saying I love you is just the beginning, there's so much more to follow, good writing Will :)

Thanks so very much Richard. Yes sir, saying I love you is only one small piece of the puzzle, proving it is even bigger.

Love when voiced is everything but people forget the little things - it is indeed an art - this is well portrayed xo

Regret is something we all have and you have expressed it in a beautiful way. If only....something that probably churns in so many minds of the people of the world. I really like it. Thank you.

Thank you so much Confuser. Those three words are important but so much more needs to be said along with them. Thank you again for your kindness

No problem, I was rewarded. It's wonderful to read your poetry. Thank you.

I think this speaks to actions more than words. If our actions would have finished the story... what if?
Saying I love you is meaningless without "saying" the rest.
Great poem will.

Thanks so much David. You are correct. Actions do speak louder than words.
