I want you back again <br />to give things another try, <br />I’m sure we can learn <br />from our mistakes the first time around. <br />We got married in a rush <br />in the first flush of romance <br />never waited to get to know <br />one another that well. <br />Neither of us wanted to give and take a bit, <br />our shouting could be heard <br />half way down the street. <br />Both of us wanted more <br />than the other wanted to give, <br />we never settled on a compromise. <br />Now I want you back again <br />to give things another try. <br />I’m sure it will be better <br />from the lessons we’ve learnt. <br />If we walk this time instead of run, <br />just take one-step at a time, <br />try and be more tolerant towards one another <br />I’m sure it will workout <br />and all we have to do is try. <br />Do we take another chance <br />or is this our final goodbye? <br /> <br /> <br />7 September 2009<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-want-you-back-11/
