What If

What if I had listened from the start Would you have let me win your heart? What if I hadn't text or called Would you have even cared at all? What if I had left you to be alone Would your love for me have grown? What if in life we could turn back time Would you take me back an just be mine? What if we could fix are broken wound's Would are love be greatly resumed?

This reminds me of the saying "If you love something set it free. If it comes back to you, it's yours. If it doesn't...it never was." Perhaps you and she were never meant to last. I'm sorry this love seems doomed to be in the past. Why spell our as are?

I felt like this a little while ago. Love is beautiful yet fickle beast.

DAVID MCILWAINE, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
