The Image of You


The Image of You
I saw you today
Standing there
Made sure you didn’t see me
Because that is how much I care
Heart skipped a beat
Stomach fell to the ground
The anxiety hit me
Stopped seeing the world all around
The stress is overwhelming
Hands shaking constantly
Wish I could move past this
All I want is harmony
Why is this so hard
Why can’t I forget the past
Want to escape the memories
Of a love that couldn’t last
The special memories live on
The arguments will too
The feel of your touch
The talk of a great rendezvous
Long talks
Of a future together
But now our bond
Is forever severed
I didn’t do right by you
Not giving you enough
Maybe I was too selfish
Or a bit too gruff
I never meant to hurt you
But I can’t turn back time
And I know once you forget me
You will be fine
You are so special
I know you will find
A woman who treats you right
One who is loving and kind
Maybe one day
The feelings will fade
The friendship will be restored
And the bond will be remade
But for now
I must bid you adieu
To save you from me
And the pain I put you through.
