PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

So you took it in your care

You caressed it as if your own

You helped begin it’s repair

And I no longer felt alone



The scars slowly healed

My trust began to grow

My body started to yield

With the problems you begged to know



Right then I understood

What I missed out on before

That what I had was so good

But I can’t have it anymore



Another blow and break

More scars it had to hide

Another loving ache

While it slowly died inside



Days longer than any should

It bled with painful emotion

Then you said it never would

If my heart had had your devotion



Sadly I missed the chance

My turn was gone in a beat

And as I take another glance

I feel so incomplete



Now I feel what you felt

Now I see what you saw

Now I deal with this dealt

And now there’s no withdraw



I created my own pain

Stabbed it with my own knife

And if I could go back again

I’d have married you into my life
