A long time ago <br />All I wanted was to write something beautiful for you <br />But I could never find the words <br />Words were the slippery parts in conversation <br />The beginnings and ends because once we get started <br />You can never shut us up <br />Then, as soon as I could really relate to you <br />We had to be torn apart <br />And this may very well be <br />The biggest mistake ive ever made in my entire life <br />But I dont love you anymore <br />I just cant love you anymore <br />A long time ago... <br />Or maybe it wasn't so long <br />I thought about US differently, so differently <br />Than how I picture us today <br />Im sorry for what I've done <br />I regret the chances I had to speak up when it mattered <br />And I never did <br />You gave me every right, but neither of us could speak. <br />Neither of us were that different on the inside <br />Or were we? <br />How much have we really changed from who we were? <br />I can tell you, I've grown up since the feelings of yesteryear <br />I can tell you, I've learned so much from the mistakes of yesteryear <br />But I can tell you whatever I want to <br />Even if it isn't always true <br />I could even dare to tell you <br />That I will always love you<br /><br />Newo Enec<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-long-time-ago-2/
