When I wandered away, I went deep, way deep <br />I couldn't find my way back from the trip <br />I had no idea; I had been gone for too long <br />So many things I did, but with them I saw nothing wrong <br />You cried so many tears, yet all I did was ignore <br />I had been gone for too long like a drunk man lost in the bottles of his liqour <br /> <br />The vigor of your love I could not help but bare <br />Even in the land of unknown I saw the light in your heart was rare <br />I could not help but trace back my steps <br />It took me two and half years for this trek <br />I wanted nothing else but you, alas I was a little too late <br />I had been gone for too long; the heart of another has taken my place <br /> <br />I miss you so much but your heart is after another, for you waited too long in tears <br />And I can not totally blame you for your heart was full of fears <br />I am heart broken but You deserve to be happy so I'd let you go <br />In your eyes I see, together we could have grown so old <br />You waited on that spot where I left and another found your heart, <br />I was gone for too long; now I lost the one who for so long was after my heart. <br /> <br />By: Tayo Ankra<br /><br />Temitayo Ankra<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gone-for-too-long/
