Poetry: I would endure all of you again

by Craig Davis

Created on: July 23, 2009   Last Updated: July 31, 2009

As my thoughts consumed me I felt it was only ideal to lay my words in plain view,

Sometimes you have to read what someone feels, it's the best way to get through.

Trials and tribulations have indulged in this thing that we call us,

And no matter what we've encountered in the past I believe we deserve to start new.

Baby I love you endlessly and it is you that my mind body and soul are complete,

And as hard as it may sound my love for you is something I will never delete.

Memoirs of our times linger in my mind and not a thing to presently show,

For it was those distrustful comments that made you feel so low.

I ask that you visualize my sorrow and empathize with me for what I've done,

You will truly see that I regret every word and yet they can not be undone.

You are my happiness, that I will not deny none the least,

But I will confirm that I was wrong indeed I could have been there more for you.

At your lowest I seemed to shun you even more,

Not to mention my words, of just being me and you can quietly walk out that door.

When you decided to leave it suddenly hit me that you were not supposed to leave,

I began to grieve, knowing that is not what I truly wanted for me or you.

Although it seemed as if our love was dead, but neglected to reach down and revive what once was and what could be,

Lingering in my mind is a question, is this just an intermission for our true love to commence or is this really the end?

My comrade, my partner, my lover, my friend, my life just flashed before my eyes, is this really the end?

I know it's my own selfishness and restraints that brought this all to be,

I'm not discarding all of the blame but was this all really because of me?

Because I failed to acknowledge all that you've given me and all that you wanted in return.

Because of this I suffer, yearning to have you in my arms and illuminating my life,

Missing out on my sweet lady and the chance to call you my wife.

To bear our child and live like a fairy tale until the end of time,

My lover is what you are, so much greater than a friend.

But these are just a few of the things I'm trying to repair everyday.

Recalling how we clashed which caused problems to arise,

But through everything that we've encountered it is you who helps me become wise.

I find myself constantly reciting our arguments and how they lead to this,

How I'm now ignored and pushed away and, how empty I am without your kiss.

I know sometimes I can be difficult, but I'm really not that hard to please,

I need you next to my side, I'm down on my knees.
