Why today did you have to come back here,
allowing me to see you once again,
to recall the feelings that I have drowned
in the lake of heartbreak, to reappear.
Just as I was making progress you are here,
in eyesight, you see me and smile.
Looking at me with those intimadating,
piercing, beautiful hazel eyes,
I once fell in love with.
You keep walking and looking back smiling,
but not saying a word, and I, simply in shock.
When those doors opened and I saw you,
I was speechless... I didn't need you to be there!
I didn't need a reminder of what I truly wanted
but could not have!
I didn't need those heartfelt poems
to play back in my ear over and over
as if it were a broken record player!!
But nonetheless, you ARE here, still standing arms reach
but still say nothing.
Females swarm you, constructing a crowd
I didn't want to be a part of,
so I continue to walk, each step harder for me to take,
not taking this opportunity to tell you I MISS you,
I LOVE you, walking not looking back to my lost hope for love.
I've tried to move on, but you being here
is doing quite the opposite.
Standing here I cry and ask why did I have to see you?
Why couldn't I have taken an alternate route?
Just as I was moving on YOU show up!
I was forgetting, my love was deteriorating,
but has now come back to haunt me.
What is the reason I had to see him God.
I know everything happens for a reason, but why today?
Just a week from my acknowledgement that he could not be mine
What is the harsh message, PLEASE, let me know,
Because at this moment, I am drowned in the Lake of Heartbreak,
trying to find my way to Land.
