Best Introspectionfeelings Poems
It is so true that feelings fly
And only for a moment stay,
‘Til song or memory has died,
And time has washed them all away
Like sunlight peeking over storm,
They come so welcoming and warm,
Before retreating to the clouds
Where neither warmth nor light are found
But as they fly and take their turn,
Within our hearts, they sink and burn,
In hopes their fleeting fire will leave
Undying embers never to recede
Alas, it’s true that feelings fade;
They come and go without concern,
Until our hearts are old and gray,
And time has taught us what we could not learn.
it started as a game
a game without the rules
invented as we went along
that’s how it was with you
excitement slowly building
a stairway winding up
maybe we climbed to quickly
I never looked closeup
should have left the feelings out
and kept it as a sport
before it got too serious
before I found that I fell short
need a different perspective
need to get a grip
need to rethink all of this
and stop shooting from the hip
you weren’t the only player
you are not to blame
I went in with eyes wide open
culpability is the same
I think it’s time to walk away
my purpose has been served
there’s nothing going forward
now that the road has swerved
the memories I take with me
bittersweet at best
keeping the feelings close to me
and aborting all the rest
