Charles Reese Poet Quatrain

I Miss You

There was a time when you and I 
Where near and dear to each oh my
I loved you and you cared for me
Between us two there was a we

What has happened to you my one
Your words now gone no song now sung
I never thought you would go dear
I imagined you would stay near

I guess I was a fool to think
That one so lovely would not blink
With so much youth but you're not mine
The lass to me she was so fine

Why do I write this she'll not read
A thing I write though my soul bleeds
Why has she left me am I to old
Is there another who is more bold

The one was a time that you and I
Where near and dear to each oh my
Is there another who is more bold
Why have you left I've not been told

Brenda Meier-Hans September 12, 2014 at 9:41 AM Congratulations Charles on your win. If we have never hurt, then we have never loved. If we have never loved, then we have hurt for lack of it. Charles Reese September 12, 2014 at 9:54 AM I'm a firm believer that it's better to have loved and lost then never to have loved at all.
