I Thought Of You In A Memory Today...

Folder: 
Hmm..I wonder...?

I thought of you in a memory today,

And I remembered how good it had been.

The sun rising perfect in beautiful hues

And at noon, they were singing a song just for me.

Who knew by sunset, it wouldn't be three?

I thought of you in a memory this way,

How perfect it really had been.

How silly of me, to try to chase you

When at noon, you were right next to me.

Who knew we weren't meant to be?

I'd go off as a dreamer and follow the clouds,

And you'd go back to the lives that meant nothing before.

We would wave as we passed, but it'd be only seconds.

We'd be happy at the end of our day.

I remember it well, as I scream this out loud,

Trying to claim you as mine once more.

But the memory faded in just that split second,

And the favor would fade from my way.

I wish I could love you as much as I did,

I wish I could have you again.

I wish you would have waited forever for me,

I wish I didn't cause so much pain.

I would have liked to take back what I said,

And get you out of this poem, and out of my head.

But I made it all worse, like a silly school girl,

And you will not give up your entire world.

And I can not make you, I gave you away,

But you sought out some other, to replace me today.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is all on me. I deserve every emotion I feel. Whether justified or not. Today, I thought I had made a big mistake. And I was thinking of setting things right. But my jealousy, my selfishness, I will never be happy. So I'm not going to bother to drag him back in.
