The past recast by Kosta GkekasWe think of the past whilst living our lives
Regretting the hurt, the tears and the pain in our eyes
sliding on highways that never sought to end
We wished for the sun, but never got to defend
We both made mistakes, put pain in our hearts
But here we are again, as always to be cast
traveling a road as once before but apart,
promising emotions that will never see us part.
Counting our blessings that still we are one
But living lives that we have both begun
but is it in dreams we find such deep love
It is within that we fear to make a new start
Feelings and memories flow deep in my mind
Of those days our love was genuine and kind
Holding you close, feeling your skin
You look into my eyes and make my head spin
Those feelings are back, but stronger than ever
we know that right now we were never better
I know you're the one I want to hold on to at night
We both smile again, and sample our might
Kissing you again was like a fire reborn.
And this my dear love is where we will weather the storm

I like this poem, because you remember those pitfalls but feel you can weather them again |
