You

Oh how I miss you

My mind wanders constantly
Thinking of what we could’ve been
When I met you I could tell you’d be mine
And you would’ve if I could’ve only
Just held onto you
I messed up and I wish you’d forgive me
I wish we could be what we both wanted to be
But here I lay
Led astray
Thinking of you
With my boyfriend in the room

This resonates with me too
I love the write
So many regrets in it
My philosophy I believe I read ages ago is this
I feel in life we have three soul mates three lovers or true loves in our lifetime
Don’t feel too bad at least you had him for a while but I know that won’t help your feelings
If you are meant to be with him let it happen
Good write ✍️

We weren’t meant to be, but losing him taught me valuable lessons that I needed at the time, and wouldn’t have gained otherwise. Although I wish with all my heart it hadn’t happened like it did. I think it was truly for the best, it just still hurts sometimes yk.

Chuckling here ...I always say "We don't choose whom we Love, just whom we like."

Sometimes the grass isn’t greener on the other side. We all make mistakes. We learn lessons from those errors and hopefully move on. I felt your sadness here. First of yours I have read. Hope to read more.

Oh gosh, I was totally not expecting the ending! Oh how it must hurt to be with someone yet think about someone else. Regrets are part of every broken relationships, and sometimes moving on is just so hard to do. But if you two were meant to be, you'll eventually make your way back to each other. Thanks for sharing!

We were meant to be, losing him was meant to teach me a lesson I wouldn't learn otherwise. And it did. it hurts and miss him, but he's gone. It's really hard, but it's getting a lot easier now that's been over a year and a few months

I'm glad to hear that the healing process is getting easier for you

Loved that catch ending, I really wasn't expecting that. But, this is a poem I know will speak to many. Nicely done.
