To Go Back

Someone from my past that I wish would have never left

If I could, I would go back to when it was just you and me.

Nothing else but the two of us, living and loving life.

 

I wish there was a way to do that… go back in time.

Fix all the wrong and make it right again.

I wish you would have seen back then what you see now.

We could have been something great, but it is too late.

I’m not sure what to do, or what to think.

I just wish I could undo everything that was done

In the end, I don’t understand why it had to happen

I don’t understand why it had to end the way it did.

There was no real reason for it, just a big mistake.

I wish we could fix things now, but we can’t.

It pains me to even think about that night when it all went so wrong.

I know you’ll never ever read this or ever hear these words from me

But it needs said.

 

I would give anything to go back to that day

Where you held me for the first time

You wiped away my tears

You gave me a reason to smile and laugh

And you took away all my fears

You kissed me gently on the lips and promised me…

You would never leave me, no never

But now it’s all gone and part of you will be with me forever

I just wish it was all of you with me, not just part.

 

Cause if I could, I would go back to when it was just you and me

Nothing else but the two of us, living and loving life.

Touching and heartfelt write. I have learned from past experiences myself that if things are meant to be there is always a chance it will come back if it is meant to be apart of our life. Nicely done.

[Cassie Fraga]

yes emotional indeed... I can feel it burning through these lines of yours... very well expressed!!

[Alana McGuire]

Ahhhh I love this! I feel like I can relate to it a lot. I've written multiple poems about someone that I wish more than anything that I could go back with.
I especially enjoyed the part: I know you’ll never ever read this or ever hear these words from me
But it needs said.
That's what I always think when I write them also.
Very nicely written. :)

Although I may not understand what you're feeling exactly, I can definitely sense your emotion emanating from the words. It may not be the most well written poem, but its genuine and powerful. As far as enhancing it's effect, I would recommend a stronger vocabulary. For example line 4, change fix to mend or change big to tremendous in line 11. However, the poem is still powerful without any modifications.
-btw i hope your mind has been eased, i know its probably difficult to move passed something like that wholly. i'll "pray" for you ;)

OMG, ONCE AGAIN, totally describes my feelings!! This is awesome!!

[A. L. Allen]

Wow, the emotions from this poem radiate from every word, and I could feel chills coming on! :) Your words are so simple, but they carry such a profound message! I think we all wish we could go back in time to fix and change things. Unfortunately, we can't, but that helps us learn and grow. Amazing ink! Well done!

The pain we feel when we love and and than love leaves is sometimes the worst to try and recover from. Thank you for writing this. It reminds me of someone I was once with, and loved. I still love him, and I'm sure there is a part of him that loves me, and we both contributed something beneficial to each others lives. Thats the blessing of love, is that it enriches you, even though sometimes you may feel it doesn't.

aww.. that's a very emotional poem. the message here is pretty simple, yet it's too deep. lost love, pain, regret, sorrow. you've done a great job on this! :) i hope you've moved on from this painful past.. ^^
