All I Want Poem by joses tirtabudi

I always knew it was too good to be true,
But still I tried reaching out for you.
You made me high, you sent me mad.
You made me reach out like I had never dared.
The short times we spent together
Shrouded in mysterious ether.
Till it came crashing down:
The reality and code by which we were bound.
Love can triumph over all, but it takes a soul
Not afraid to take a fall.
Tis neither were we. And so it died.
At least I could say I tried.
So frustrated by the fact I never knew
What ghosts haunted you.
Never got to see what was inside your heart -
No, perhaps not, but just a part.
A dark mystery of what could have been?
A bright future ahead if I could've seen?
I'm not one to walk away,
But that's all that seems left to me today:
But ‘fore I walk away and let it be,
All I want to know, is did you ever love me?
