I ramble in my dreams <br />About who I would have been <br />If that January never happened <br />Would we have stayed more than friends <br /> <br />Your face crosses my mind <br />Every time I close my eyes <br />If I could only tell you <br />I hid behind my lies <br /> <br />I struck you hard <br />Not caring if I left you bleeding <br />What I wouldn't give <br />To show you that my emotions weren't fleeting <br /> <br />You've been with others, so have I <br />Yet none compare to us <br />Physically I am drawn to you <br />But it would be more than lust <br /> <br />I've imagined things we've never done <br />And words you would have said <br />My smile fills my eyes with tears <br />As I crawl back into bed <br /> <br />You're to thank for m dreaming nights <br />Your gentle touch caressed <br />I long to keep you by my side <br />If so, I would be blessed <br /> <br />I yearn to be yours again <br />But I can't understand why <br />You seem to have forgotten our past <br />That thought makes me want to die <br /> <br />You've made me who I am today <br />For that I owe my life <br />But nothing could ever be sweeter <br />Than the hope of becoming your wife <br /> <br />My realistic mind tells me <br />You won't even consider <br />But my hopeful heart keeps wishing <br />That you won't be a goddamn quitter <br /> <br />Please don't turn your back on me <br />I am a part of you <br />If January never happened... <br />Oh I wish, I pray I knew<br /><br />Rebekah Parrish<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/regrets-39/
