I live life with no true regrets,
So I remain distant from the stress that lies in the distance.
Those heartaches you’d swear on your name
Felt like gut wrenching pain,
And all the agony that comes with reminiscing.
The memories so vivid and descriptive
So realistic, that I can taste the sweat on her lips,
And feel the hesitation that sets in before the kiss
How my hands gripped her hips
How her skin felt like temptation
How the moment lasted forever
How I realized it wouldn’t last forever
When I snap back in to reality
I feel like I witnessed a tragedy
Because this is not what I want
But it is what I once had
And the memory brings
Back the chemistry
That was once so great it seemed like symmetry
As time fades away these thoughts seem to stay
Permanently embedded in my brain
Sweet yet vicious like lye laced kisses
Or the exquisite meal that’s prepared
For the man that’s about to face his fears
And find out what awaits him in the next dimension.
I use to spend my days in darkness and mischief.
Though I changed my ways when I saw her face.
I saw faith in sway of hips,
So my breath she takes away as I kiss her lips
That past she takes away I feel that I missed
What it could have been
If she would have been with me back then
If I could have caressed her skin
If love could have begun with her
If the past could have been spun with her
Instead of the web that’s weaved of mistrust, lust, and hurt
If she could have claimed her turf
Before the others came to work
The ones that made it more work for her
So at times my love may seem like a curse to her
Though she knows our future is bright
Like a distant star in the sunlight.

I’m certain that I live with no true regrets
Though it seems that the only purpose of the past
Is to remind me of what I had
To take the truth and twist it
To change me from sane to demented
This misery is worse than a child sitting in detention
When the teacher failed to mention
He could attend recess.
If only my life I could reset
If only I could Ctrl, Alt, Del
The recesses of my mind
And let the monster loose
I’m forced to trap in the basement
All the built up anger I’d hate to displace it
And all this love has yet to replace it.
Happiness is here I can taste it
Her presence is far from basic
Every minute treasured none wasted
Every hour helps build this tower
That’s meant to reach heavens
This power of peace
This peace of power
She has over me
Makes me feel complete
So I’ll Ctrl, Alt, Delete
Any memories that aren’t as sweet, as She.
That aren’t as deep as me
Inside of Her
Making love with her,
My only wish is to share this love with her
Maybe have a son with her
My life is like white doves with her
So I live with no true regrets
Because my past brought me to her
So I don’t mind the heartache and the hurt I once felt,
Even if my heart is Ice she’ll make it melt
