For a time

For a time

You were everything.
Your smile
Lit sparks
That raced
Down my spine,

My heart skipped a beat
When you
Spoke to me.
The world paused
So we could run free.
You seemed so divine

For a time.

Things always change.
Forever’s a dream,
Every summer
Has rain.
I stopped being
The light in your world,

Once again
Youโ€™re a mystery girl.
I know you’ll find love,
I know you’re not mine,
But I want you to know
I was yours

For a time.

  2. I. Love. This. I read it backwards too ๐Ÿ™‚
    A Mystery girl now ๐Ÿ’”. That’s what hurts the most I think. When someone you knew so well… Becomes a mystery. My heart aches just typing those words. Excellent write! ๐Ÿ™‚

      1. I sent you an email… I’m sorry. I had a question about my comments. But somehow I was able to send you a comment without knowing. Geez! Forgive me. Delete this comment! I’ll leave another one about the poem. Ryan, I’m the biggest dork ๐Ÿ˜‰

      3. Haha… Yes that’s the email I used. It looks like it finally went thru at 10:11 pm. I don’t know what time it is there. Gosh, Ryan, I’m sorry… I feel I’m being dramatic. I realize now my question doesn’t pertain to your site. Haha… I’m not always such a dork. Promise.

    The tress undress and dress, and move on, and so do we it seems. There is romance and love lost. I love this side too.. the relentless one. ๐Ÿ™‚
