The One That Got Away

by Johnny Hammersticks   May 24, 2008


Damn, it took a year and some months to finally realize. The pain now begins, can no longer hold what's inside. I thought I was over you, i guess i was wrong. You really don't know what you got untill it's gone. I saw a picture of you today, it brought so much memories. The happiness you gave to me and everything you meant to me. I saw you smiling wrapped around another man's arms. Remembering once upon a time it was me who kept you warm. Not too long ago you were once mine. A whole entire chapter frozen in my mind. We never did talk about it nor try to work it out. I once was sure of my decision, but now I'm having doubts. But I know I can't change anything or change the course of time. But I must atleast show the effort that I tried. So for one last time let me wipe away the tears in your eyes. Mistress of my Dreams, here's the "final goodbye".....

    This really touched me. When people touch you so much like you write about it's ard to forget them and a piece of our hearts probably won't because it's hard to forget and I believ forgive someone that touched us that let us down by leaving.

    Keep writing, you do well

    I don't think you ever get over that true love in your life. Pain becomes less and less with time, then all of a sudden something can trigger the memories and the pain. You have written very well about those things and feelings. Well done.
