Love Poem: To Those Heights

To Those Heights

Memories of your loving
Still lingers everywhere
How great we were together
How much you showed me that you cared
You so gentle and the laughs we shared
And now look at all the years that have since past
The pains of live for both of us that could’ve been spared
If only I had understood then
My feelings would’ve been bared
The bits and pieces of feelings and of memories
Have always had their special place
Their own touch of grace
Where I could only go and still see your face
One day they were no longer vague
They were clear and coming back in my mind as such a fast pace
I’m constantly in my mind
Re-living all those days
And how hard it was to say goodbye
We had to break the gaze
Always thought that we moved on
And things like that happen when you’re young
So moments flew by with time
It was like a bell in my head
That suddenly rung
All I though about was you
All I could think about was finding you
And how my life with you had
Then only just begun
And now I’ve found you, told you
Some of what I needed to say
But that don’t make it any easier to get through the day
I fear it may have caused you to run away
I hope we won’t be victims of circumstance
That you give me another chance
To show you how I feel
Is true and real
I’m bleeding though all scars are healed
I pour my heart and soul out
In these words that I write
Needing the chance to say them to you
But my tongue gets tied
And the words don’t come out right
It’s an endless fight
With myself every day, each night
But I can’t never again lose sight
Of how I want my heart to take flight
Wake up with you in the mornings light
From holding each other so tight
Please come back
Don’t wait to long
Apart is where we are
Together is where we belong
It can’t be wrong
It will be all right
Take me once more
To those heights
