Turning Back

by Paine   Dec 11, 2006


Next time I see you
I have a feeling
I'll tear you up in two
Or just kiss you

You've been far away
Way too long

I hate myself now
For all of the feelings
I didn't show

Restraining myself,
I must think now
What the hell was I thinking?

I'm up in my neck with regret
I just can't seem to forget
The day you left

Walking away with your necklace
Staring at it,
Remembering your embrace
I miss you even after a few steps

I wanted to turn around and run to you
I'm sure you wanted me to

Something held me back
Courage is something I lack
And kept the words from coming out
I wanted to shout

Now I'm choking back the tears
Oh god, seems like it\'s been years
Since I've seen your face
I feel I'm falling from grace

Those three words now plague me
The ones I just could not say the day you left

Please someone kill me now
So I can go and whisper to him how
I loved him so

    Hey, thx for the comment.
    I looked through all your poems,
    and of all i like this one best.
    It's well written, and even though i couldn't fully relate, the lines flow.
    plus i like your wording and spacing.
