Regrets

Tonja Boyd 1967 (Exas)



In the early hours of morning or late hours of the night ...the loneliness comes creeping in no matter how much I  Fight....

Memories of days gone by pictures in my head... I can no longer hear your voice ...another part of me is dead......

I try so hard not to think but my thoughts go round and round... It seems to this life of loneliness ..I have forever become bound.....

Regrets play over in my mind ..like a movie on a screen ....   why did I? Why didn't I? My mind begins to scream....

I should have, I shouldn't have... my God when will this all end?.. Will I ever fall in love again ? will my heart begin to mend ?...

I think the hardest part for me.. is the way I treated you...
Unable to make it better The farther away from me you grew....

My body craves your gentle touch and the way you held me close...
The kisses you softly placed on me are the things I miss the most.....

Those eyes, your smile,
Your tender touch.. these things are gone forever...
Will I ever stop loving you?  The answer there is NEVER....

Tonja Boyd

I'm a situational poet. I've endured a lot of heartache and loss in my life so sometimes my writing can be a little deep or dark for people. But it helps me express my feelings and what's on my mind so I like to write about whatever's going on in my life at the time are somebody else's life. So I hope you like my work it comes straight from the heart. more…
