Memories and Regret
As I walk along familiar
paths, memories remind
me of you.
Young couples walk by
laughing and smiling, yet
I walk alone.
With each step, and each
cherished memory, that
comes before the
windows of my mind.
I feel the remorse of
having lost something
precious, for love long
lost, amidst forgotten
times cannot be easily
regained.
And I remain trapped
within a limbo of my
own making. As feelings
of happiness and sadness
intermingle with the reality
of my loss.
As darkness ascends
within my heart, and light
itself flees from my misery,
I retreat within my tears.
Perhaps, in sleep I may
find refuge, from the
dreams of you, which
haunt me by day.
Yet in one brief moment
of despair, I hold you close,
and wish you were here
