For Melissa

by John Pickett   May 1, 2007


Only now in your absence do I feel
Your love.
Strange , that it took so long ,but unfortunately
Too late.

I let someone else and the world
Come between us.
I never knew I was trapped in a
Web.
I made up lies about you to myself to
The point of believing them...
You never did Anything wrong.

How could I have been so blind and
Twisted.

If it makes you feel better...my life
Is Hell and I never stop thinking about you ...
And how you tried to pull me back.

Please forgive me someday.

    Wow, very powerful. I can really relate to this poem. I understand every emotion you are trying to convey in this piece of writing, your words were so true to your feelings. I loved the simple one word lines you used to emphasize your point. Very well done.
