Belated

I know it's too late;
I know these words mean nothing
after the passage of time.

But I’m discovering
that I love you
for the first time
and I wish I had known sooner.

If only, you could be here with me
like we used to be,
two people looking into
the future together.

But alas, it was not meant to be
and I’m alright with that
even though your absence hurts.
