I thought I knew what I needed, <br />I thought I figured out what I wanted, <br />But I was more than wrong, <br />For I lost her, the one I love, <br />Because of my own stupidity. <br /> <br />I gave him my heart, <br />I loved him without shame or regret, <br />He told me I was his only one, <br />But those were lies coming from his lips, <br />And I believed every one. <br /> <br />She passes me now and I can’t think, <br />For a single moment our eyes meet, <br />Her stare so cold and hard, <br />I wish to tell her of my sorrow and pain, <br />But her heart no longer cares. <br /> <br />My heart flutters as he so closely passes me, <br />But I can’t let him know the truth, <br />It would simply show my vulnerability, <br />And that would only push up his ego, <br />So for that short second…I show nothing. <br /> <br />I miss her, <br />I need her, <br />But I’ve destroyed any chance, <br />I loved her and I lost her, <br />Now it’s all left to… <br /> <br />His smile, <br />His laugh, <br />I miss them more and more every day, <br />But I can’t put my heart on the line, <br />Not again, not even for what I crave most… <br /> <br />…Her forgiveness <br /> <br />…His attention <br /> <br />We shared a love that died, <br />A trust that was broken, <br />And a dream of forever that faded…<br /><br />Kristen Currey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fading-from-forever/
