A poem about the one?
Please let me know if the title fits |
We met so many years ago I was a kid with a crush You were so sweet Going out of your way Just to make my day We drifted apart And lost our way Never believing that someday Our paths would again cross And we’d take the time to actually stop We grew closer On a deeper level than before One intimate kiss Who would have known that would be the end of our bliss But the timing was wrong That was all we got We talked but the phone Doesn’t hit the lonely spots I was too wild After being set free You, I suppose were more ready than me. A physic told me to look to the sky Or I would never learn to fly To soar with the eagles above the earth The last person I could imagine being with Was the one I drew a blank Then he said Someone from your past With a kiss that made you laugh Because it seemed a decade late Again I drew a blank, After all these years My teen age dreams Of you forgotten Even after our kiss, I always knew I wasn’t your type Then in one breath I started to wonder My friend screamed The PILOT And I shook my head no A nervous laugh slipped past my lips How could this be? You and me? That was something I just couldn’t see Then the physic spoke And said, That’s what he had just told me So now I don’t know Is it true? Could it be? Are you the one meant for me? If so then fate is truly cruel For I was so scared I did things I knew were wrong It was a way for me to run I met someone else He was safe I played a game And was caught off guard I knew it was wrong and went to stop it The accident took me by surprise Just a few days after I realized 16-year old boys don’t do what you did Now’s there’s a baby and I’m all alone The boy was safe At least to my heart He’s not to smart So I don’t have to share our little girl On 9/11 I called your mom I had to know you were alright I couldn’t wait for our government To release the names of those pilots that night I breathed a sigh of relief when I heard her voice My heart leaped with joy for there was no grief Then she told me how well you had done Left Delta’s Comair and flown for the Celebes I had to choke back a lump When she said you had remarried and had a baby The blue grass state made me quit sad Could this be the end? Had I sealed my own fate Or was the timing just not quite right Now I think of you often Something tells me you are free But how could we be meant to be After all these years And now God knows how many miles Thanks to Katrina our paths won’t likely cross But if they do, this time I am ready Two decades of wasting I won’t do again So come and find me My pilot, my knight Come and rescue me And make everything right |
