Love Poem: For a Reason

For a Reason

The moon is shining
so bright tonight
and it's another
lonely night
just sitting here
wondering about you
and feeling the need to break through
time on my hands 
some days I'm up
some days I'm down
most days however
my emotions are whirling
all around
can't seem to catch
or keep any kind of control of them
and I just wish so hard
I could see your face again
I still want and need you
more than you know
you are someone
I can't seem to ever let go
I feel like I've missed
so many chances to confess my love
and how I feel you were 
sent to me from up above
you were brought into my life
for a reason

I can't stress enough of
how I want so bad
to hold you near
oh my God
I need you here
but know this
even through all my pain
and through all my tears
I would walk away
still for you today
just as I did in past years
if that's what you wanted
seeing you the other day
just for those few moments
it was a feeling
I can't explain
I finally knew once again
what being happy was
cause that feeling went away from me
a long time ago
and now I sit here and can't help
but think
damn it, that's another chance I didn't take
another opportunity I blew
don't know if you realize yet
how much I love you
you looked at me
and asked
why was I there
you had a hard time believing that
I came all that way
just to see you
you were right not to believe
cause it was not entirely true
now I'm so blue because
I was there for more
I was there
for a reason
reason being
to tell you once and for all
I'm still in love with you and only you
you are in my heart and soul
you made me feel like my life was whole
I just hope my chance hasn't completely passed
to see if our love was really meant to last
and if I was really supposed to go through
all I've been with my feelings for you
and if it was all
for a reason
