Sitting here alone, memories of our past keep coming to my mind
Good times, fun times, all of which, to my heart were so kind
Memories, so hard to replace, let alone come to find
Just knowing you existed always had my heart in a bind
Do you remember when I would call you late at night?
Your mom would pick up, I would be worried… but in the end was alright?
And even if it wasn’t we’d talk anyway, sometimes out of smite.
“Hang on for just one second let me turn out my light”
Even in the innocence of youth, for some reason it just felt so right
Sometimes we would talk for hours, most, till nights end
Sometimes just to hear each others voices, or our shoulders we would lend
It was almost like we’ve always known each other, a long lost childhood friend
Often hard to say goodnight, hearing your voice was something I didn't want to end
All the while my heart secretly wishing, the rest of my life with you I could spend.
For your beauty is comparable to the deepest, darkest, of blood red roses,
Your faith parallel to that of the holiest of kings and Moses’
Your spirit, could have been Mozart’s best symphony, yet to compose
But even with the hours spent writing this, my true feelings for you, no words or poems disclose
Just know, the most influential of love poets in history, their spirit, this poem encloses
More times than I can remember, intermittently, we would talk in your driveway
From what was going on in our lives, to the crazy things we did that day
Mostly the broken hearts obtained from others, the depth of your eyes, always my runaway.
And through the advice you’d give on faith and hope, as well as the inspirational things you’d say
You found the key to unlock my heart, a door, the ultimate unknown secret passageway
But when it truly mattered most, I was afraid to tell you exactly how I felt
Unparalleled and unworthy of you, no other choice, and to my knees I knelt
As much as it hurt, I knew, being "friends" was just something I was dealt
Seeing you love and happy with others, all of which to my soul was a belt
However, your smile alone (even if it wasn’t from me) always had a way of making my heart melt
So before you turn your back, and head out towards the sunset
Leaving me only memories locked forever in the un-detailed, cold, darkness of your silhouette
Know that out of everything that ever came between us, there is only one thing I regret...
Not telling you all of this sooner, maybe then, Me… you wouldn’t forget.
