Yesterdays

Who does your past belong to today? Not me anymore since we parted ways Constantly wondering if you’re doing ok Thinking about our yesterdays The timing was off when I was your past Did all we could to make it last That brief time still unsurpassed In my mind there’s no contrast If we’d met later, at a different time We could have made it, it might have been fine The love we shared, complete, sublime We were a shooting star after a rapid climb Too much distance, too much space Logging miles, to be in one place It was worth it for your embrace The look of happiness on your face It wore us down, tired us out Tore us apart, started our doubts Too much work to go that route That’s what the end was all about I hope you’re happy, and you are well We both moved on the past now quelled We could meet again, only time will tell It is a thought that sometime dwells Who does your past belong to today?

I’m tired of all this past love … and stuffs. Well, just trying to express my mind. You have got a great talent, writing of love, writing for love or writing on love. All I know is that love is everything. Every one learns true love just like a baby that is learning to walk, rising and falling. Keep writing. you are great
