If You Will Have Me

My life feels like its been put on hold,

since 1991.

Knowing you were out there somewhere,

kept me going

and I searched for you in many ways,

I wouldn't stop until I found you, hon.

 

I have finally located where you are

and that gives me a small measure of peace.

The voice inside my head says,

"You gave up your best friend, your soul mate",

and it's a thought that does not cease.

 

You're never out of my thoughts,

you'll always be a part of my heart.

I want whatever makes you happy,

it's called unconditional love,

a lesson learned on my part.

 

I want you to know I want us together again,

your answer will end my misery.

If you will have me,

I'll do everything to make it happen,

I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve.

I like your poem, it flows, has a clear message although dueling messages. The desire to win back the love that escaped at a cost of dignity and the weaker one wishing for the freedom that would release love and allow independents. You can feel the emotions in the pen. Thanks for sharing this with us

I see when you wrote this...I'm so glad you are freed from this monkey on your back. What an honest write...bittersweet the paths we must take for self-realization!
