Love Poem: Never Mine

Never Mine

Please
Let me
Collect my thoughts
I dropped them
Here
Am sure
I’ve just been so busy
Flipping
Between many levels
That’s why
I didn’t see
The stumbling block
You put in front of me 
My thoughts
Just flew
From my mind
And scattered on my path
Look
There’s one
It glows
Orange
I pick it up
Dare not 
To look at it
The promise
I made
To myself
When it was locked away
The colour
Represents
Emotion
From a happier time
Before I stubbed my toe
I don’t want that pain
To flow to my heart
To remind me
Of what was lost
And what
Was never mine
