Taken

TAKEN
THE times when I used to cherish you 
Dream of you like your the diamonds 
I have never seen

THE times when you pushed me away
Yet I kept on coming back
For i thought of you and nothing more 

TIMES when you met the world to me
When all my blood was boiling to move on
Yet my stupid heart made sure i stayed

THOSE times when all i had was you
Did you see me for once
The love i had for you
Did you think of returning just a little back

BUT those times are long gone
Times and seasons have changed
That everything that was me
Naive and blind to your bitterness
has withered away like the winds
Never coming back the same way 
for am already taken.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
