STILL LONGING TO BE WITH YOU

a lonely heart

After all this while,

I still feel the vacuum you left in my life.

Leaving nothing but the memories with me,

The memories of you and me,

Laughing and playing around the field,

Just like kids,

Calling each other funny names.

Making me wish I could turn back the hands of time,

And set things right again.

Making me wish I could take back the words I said to you,

And treat you like a Queen once again.

OH! How I long to have a second chance with you,

A second chance to prove to you, your worth in my life,

A second chance to show you to my parents,

A second chance so I could put a ring on your finger,

And make you my one and only.

Beautiful poem! You have some grammar incorrections, though.Correction: in the first line "these" refers to a plural, it is correct in this instance to use "this" while. You could also change And set the things right again to And set things right again. I really like your repetition of the second chance at the end, it emphasizes your point.

We all misstep in life sometimes and wish we could back-track. I'm very fortunate to have had a life affirming few moments that made me KNOW I'd suffer every indignity, every injustice, every torment not to miss out on the life I have know. I'd be afraid that changing even on moment of the past would deprive me of my now.
