You were always on my mind

You were always on my mind Even though you never thought about me You were always on my mind I thought that's how love was meant to be I always thought of you while you always made me feel Last on your list You were still always on my mind from the first time that we kissed I thought so much of you even when you showed no thought for me That's not how love is meant to be Just the other day you called to ask Did I think of you I had been to work So sorry you are to late Now your last on my list And no chance of even a date.

Its not very nice but once they relise what they lost then they try to win you back. We friends he rings daily but that does not fool me.

"So sorry you are too late Now your last on my list And no chance of even a date." -- Excellent write! Love is enduring...but, when not reciprocated, at some point it will turn toward one more deserving.

Unrequited love and the sorrow of thinking about someone who doesn't reciprocate are well captured in this poetry. The speaker's one-sided affection for someone who ignores them as an afterthought. Well-penned poem, Diane.

Thank you so much. It's strange as now they always saying I was thinking about you ha I was always the last thought but now they trying but it's too late is not make the same mistake to trust again. We just friends and talk every day on the phone but that's as far as it goes.

Nicely done... I think many of these incidents are real life experiences..

Thank you. Yes it's based on real life. My friend rang me today and again said he was thinking about coming over to visit us but I said again Its not a good idea. We friends and talk every day on the phone but they had their chance and lost that opportunity to be happy and now they have no chance. Now they relize but it's a little too late. If they let you down once they will do it again.
