My Love Will Last Forever : Sad Poetry

My Love Will Last Forever

 

Sometimes - it's not the right time

Sometimes - there is more to be done

Sometimes - there are words to be said

Sometimes - I had to be the one.

 

Yesterday - I wasn't prepared to leave

Yesterday - I had hugs to give

Yesterday - I had a future to plan

Yesterday - I had to live.

 

Once in a while - you can stretch a season

Once in a while - you can hold a smile

Once in a while - you can battle and win

If once in a while - is only, "Once in a while."

 

Today - the respite felt right

Today - the earth seems to know

Today - I am going to make peace

Today - I'm preparing to go.

 

Tomorrow - will behold another day

Tomorrow - you will need to be strong

Tomorrow - will spill tears for us

But tomorrow - your life will go on.

 

I wish - I could have remained longer

I wish - I could comfort your fears

I wish - it were my decision to make

I wish - we could have counted more years.

 

To - those I adored you gave my life purpose

To -  my family you carry my heart

To - my love a part of my soul lives within you

To - all carry my memory and we'll never part.

 

One day - I will embrace you again

One day - I promise we'll be together

One day - you will feel me at your side

One day - you will know my love did last...

Forever.
