So Long - A Poem of Remorse

It’s been so long since I’ve been inspired to write

But thoughts fill my head while you sleep at night

At times I gaze upon you and my heart could burst

You’re the water that satisfies the unquenchable thirst

 

I love to gaze upon your body, your lines a work of art

I sink into your embrace feeling the beat of your heart

I lust for your lips; a soft paradise unreal

I hunger for the way only you make me feel

 

I think of the things I’ve done and how I could ever make amends

I ponder the reality of the fact that we’re still great friends

I search to release the anger that I know is still there

I pray to God that I’ll be able to always keep you near

 

Every man sins but the truly repented shall be freed

Yet my remorse is so great on the inside I bleed

To do it over again is a chance to live without regret

But to rewrite history is a chance I’ll never get

 

So daily I live with the consequences of my deeds

Trying to find absolution by attending to your needs

A chance to be reborn in your eyes is for what I live

My heart, my soul, and my eternal love to you I give

 

Words aren’t enough, my actions will show

For your love, there is no length I won’t go

Don’t give up on me; a chance is all I need

A flower will blossom once you plant the seed
