Favorite Mistake
by Amanda L Marroni'd take back every hurtful utterance
from my mouth
that continually stung at you like a swarm of bees
each word its own bee
i'd reach up to the midnight sky
and take down a star
for every mistake i've made
sorry isn't enough
i'd give you your wildest dreams
i'd make each and every one
become true
become real
all because i love you
we've been delving deep
looking for an answer
to a question
an answer we already know
cut into my eyes with yours
see everything i've yearned to say
but never had a chance to speak aloud
we're human
we all make mistakes
our love was my favorite

| Posted by Richard Paez on 09/08/04 at 08:45 PM describing the love you shared as your "favorite mistake" adds a sharp twist to this dagger fall of a poem. i'm not usually one for similie, but you used them really well here to express the bottomless sense of departure you felt. great write, luv, thank you for sharing this. |m| |
