PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You know those times, when you feel all alone.
The pain you have felt the tears you have shown.
I sit here and think of the good times I’ve blown,
of the childhood I missed while you have grown.

I can’t stop wondering if troubles will go away,
watching the wind blow some leaves astray.
If only my life seemed that easy today.
I would give my life to see you again and say:

I’m sorry.
I did not want it to turn out like this.
I did not know it was you I would miss,
and I want you to know:

I love you with all my heart.
Life hasn’t been simple from the start,
and I rather forgot as we grew apart,
After work called up and told me to depart.

I took a plane the very next day.
Found a hotel where I could stay.
Bought out a room, on the bed I did lay,
As my thoughts start to drift further astray.

While labouring, a woman I did succumb,
And as life persisted, her spouse I did become.
She came round to my hotel where I got some.
And now I’m proud to say that I can call her a mum.
Although that got me thinking ‘bout my very own son,
And how I left him when he was still so very young.
That’s you boy, I’m sorry, look what I have done,
Ran away from home, our own lives I had shun.

I’m sorry.
I did not want it to turn out like this.
I did not know it was you I would miss,
and I want you to know:

I love you with all my heart.
Life hasn’t been simple from the start,
and I rather forgot as we grew apart,
now I wish I never did depart.

I’m sorry.
I love you with all my heart,
how I wish I never did depart.
I’m so very sorry.
