Leaving

lost love poem

Last night,
When I went to bed,
My mind filled with thoughts…
Thoughts of you.
I look back on those times
And cherish each and every memory.
As I lied there,
I wondered what went wrong.
What made those blue eyes turn to ice,
What made that relaxed smile turn into a grim line?
What made you turn your back and take your love from me?
A warm wetness jerked me from my past into reality.
I swiped the tear with the back of my hand,
Feeling as though my heart went down, too.
I have to realize that your gone,
Never to return.
I have to acknowledge that you don’t love me,
I got to move on.
Even though I’m left alone,
I still have my memories,
No one can take from me.
Last night
When I went to bed,
My heart filled with regret.
But now, I’m putting that, and my sorrow,
Into a dark corner of my heart and past,
And locking it away.
I know that I will always keep a part of you in my heart,
But now I’m leaving.
Taking a trip to heal,
Heal my broken heart,
Good Bye, I’m leaving.
I’m Gone.
