Barley Green Poem by Les Campbell

Never knew that i would be able lose some like you! I can't seem to help myself about always thinking about you.
Knock myself on the ground cuz i was the fool, doesn't seem to matter anymore cuz thing aren't meant to be, at least for you and me.

Now when i see you, i feel so weak that i could fall, don't know how to act, i don't if i should call. I think about how things should be
Driving alone with only the short memories that were left, should of know better, i could of been better, but things ain't meant to be.

Gotta live with the fact that i pushed you away, moving on has been so hard but i've got nothing really to say, swallow my pride say i was wrong
i struggle with my thoughts and how i should i feel, i know you're happy but is it real? Wanna hold you again but i can't so i gotta be strong.

Through a fog of contradiction and out come the lake of tears, see everyone admiring their own predictions, chase a light that shines and disappears, i should be careful of what i say, reality tends to offend, i should sit back and let my soul decay, as this thing comes to an end.

I know it ain't all right, but i think about it day and night, its seem so plain to see, but things ain't meant to be.
