Starting Over

by confused angel   Aug 1, 2006


A man I know
Has loved me well
He stuck beside me
Though I put him through hell
No matter what I did
He was always there
He would bend over backwards
To show he still cared
i pushed him away
And treated him so bad
I knew I shouldn't be doing it
For he was the best I ever had
So much has happened
Between us two
I know I still love him
I'm just confused as what to do
It's hard to repair
The bridge I tore apart
But I need to do this
To save both our hearts
So what I need to do
Is start on brand new ground
The love and patience he's given me
Will now come back around
I will prove that I still need him
And am sorry for the things I've done
I will never treat him bad again
And won't push him away or run
I will start all over
And show him that I want him here
Because the man I love
To my heart is very dear.

    I like this.It is a lesson I learned the hard way-never, NEVER take love for granted.Always appreciate what is given freely, unconditionally by another.Regrets are a hard pill to swallow and sometimes you lose someone and don't realize until later how much they meant to you.The flow and expression and message of this poem is wonderful, the emotion and meaning shining through.You are lucky to have realized this truth before it was too late.Beautifully written.
