PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I never claimed to be a saint

nor did I ever try to be

I was just what I was

and you were always ok with that

despite what it did to you

We seem to travel side by side sometimes

and then we decide we’d rather go different places

I did some things I regret

Hate to say

and you acted some ways

I will never forget

Hate to say

but where you are

is fine with me

and even though it may look like I don’t care

I do

To see you really smile

and be happy

and have it have nothing to do with me

is a day I will wait for expectantly

I like to keep close

those important things in my life

but

letting someone

I know

Hurt you

I will not have it

So look before you leap

if not for you

for me
