Back in Love with You

A poem directed to a girl I guess I was in love with... don't even remember which... not good of me to say... lol. But yeah. Originally, it was supposed to be a song, but I decided to just make it a poem... like there's a difference.

We never always saw eye to eye

We hardly ever agreed on anything

But we’ve never had anything worse

Than how well Kelly Clarkson could sing

 

But that day when we said those things

Things we regret even now

We haven’t rekindled what we lost

And all I can ask is how

 

What happened to what we had

What happened to the love we once knew

Why is it so hard

To fall back in love with you

I don’t like what’s happening

This isn’t what we were meant to do

Right now all I want

Is to fall back in love with you

 

I looked up at the sky last night

All I could see was how bright your smile shined

Brighter than the moon and the stars

Was all that occupied my mind

 

But I reminded myself that you weren’t there

To share this moment with me

 To hold my hand or lean against my shoulder

And to see what I could see

 

We thought about tomorrow, but we let it slip away

We spoke about forever, but now we don’t even have today

Let me say I’m sorry, because that’s all I want to say

 

Don’t bring me down

Don’t shut me out

Don’t close that door

That’s not what we’re about

 

My love is yours alone

Without yours, I don’t know what I’d do

So let’s end this tonight

I want to fall back in love with you

"you guess you were in love with"? well i'd say you were if you could write something like that. Nice job

[B. E. Ashley]

Love is truly a slendid thing, but also filled with heartbreak and turmoil...how well you have stated your feelings, thoughts and even your dreams. Well chosen words help this to keep moving along... nice flow.
