I have seen your sunsets
I gazed upon your ochre skies
At each reminder my soul regrets
At each memory my mouth sighs
My heart yearns for the past
Days long gone in last year’s embrace
I fear my mind cannot outlast
This yearning to see your face
I imagine the day when we meet again
I invent scenes inside my head
Yet I know this just leads to pain
Of thoughts of a love now dead
I sometimes wish I never met you
A wish for rewritten histories
But then my skies would still be blue
Lacking a muse for my stories
My heart may have forgotten
Yet my mind is still beholden
cool poem. I love the vivid imagery of the words. π

OMG. Are you (still) a young man? I happen to have the wisdom of the ages (or is it the aged, hahaha!). and have built a resilience to rejection, because i know that I am a good catch, and the other person is the loser.
No one is indispensable.

Haha. Yes I’d like to think that I’m still young. Without the beard I now pass for someone in my early twenties.

Inventing scenes inside my head that leads to unbearable pain is a habit I haven’t found a way of getting rid of.
This is beautiful π

Hugot!! π Beautifully penned. π
She’d probably say…
But I still would choose to meet you
In a thousand times, write our history
I would brave the world to chase you
See your smile, continue our story.
