After two years of a relationship with a man I love, I found out that he cheated on me... Though He claims he loves me still.. This poem is about the time when I once left him, but returned back.. He called me his daisy all the time. Let me know your thoughts.... God Bless.
When long ago I left your side
You stayed up praying so I can return
You walked alone for many days
You stood alone by the vast sea
And stared at how the waves
Flirted with the sky, the sun and flying Birds
Beside you were daisies that you had arranged
Just for me...
But a strong surf surged and took all the daises
And after a short while, only one daisy came back
That daisy represented me
You always knew deep down inside that no matter how
Far I would be, I will always find my way back to you
Just like that daisy...
And there came that day, your daisy returned,
You greeted me with open arms, and I stood
Happily and embraced you in the most unbelievable way
I thought that that is it....
We are it...
We have finally made it...
I swam in that vast sea, but I learned that nothing
Will ever complete me, if you are not standing next to me
But just like all stories, we had to come to an end
I had promised you that if ever anything bad would happen,
It wouldn’t be because of me.... For it would be only Death
Now that could separate me completely from you
I kept my promise, and it will last for an eternity...
Some things happen, things we cannot explain...
And what had happened between us, you lacked
To even try to explain....
I am now a daisy with shattered petals,
I can’t understand and you cannot explain
So instead you threw me back into the vast ocean
And asked me to forget about your existence...
I am now silently sitting, with silent teardrops every night
I am now broken, and no one can make me heal
No one can make anything be right again....
What is worse now? I cannot believe any of the spoken
Words of love.... Especially.... Words that came from
Your sweet mouth
I am back to where I belong..... I am back in the ocean
But this time, I won’t hear your prayers, I won’t hear you asking God
For my return...
You words will always be printed within my mind:
I have seen all the daisies that dazzle the eye. But, the only daisy I want to keep is the one pressed in my heart. Perhaps I don’t have the daisy with me, as it is packed away in this unpredictable world, but it's the only one I love. I am just waiting for the day I can bring it out and it can forever be shown to the world and me. This world is full of many girls, but you are the only girl I want. You are the only girl I dream about, the only one I love.
I now wonder who has taught you to lie?
I am off alone to celebrate loneliness all
By myself....
The daisy you have often spoken of, is
Forever gone.
