Once Upon A Time Poem by Lesa MRK

Once upon a time,
In a world long ago,
You were my love,
And how I loved you so.

Tenderly you'd touch me,
And the world would slowly fade,
All my fears forgotten,
As my problems would evade.

Then the day approached,
The day we had to part.
Now you're far away,
But not far in my heart.

Now when I see you,
It is only in a dream.
I recall how unhappy,
And heartbroken you seem.

If only I could help you,
Reach out and share your pain.
If you could understand,
It's not just you I blame.

I feel so alone,
Feeling lost without you near.
Recalling all the joy we shared,
When yesterday you were here.

I can't believe it happened;
We made so many mistakes.
Tears are silently falling,
As my tender heart slowly breaks.

If only there were a way,
To make our dreams come true.
I'd be there in a moment,
Right beside you....

Promise you shan't forget,
The times we laughed and cried.
I have to smile,
Recalling how I felt inside.

With a heart heavy with regret,
I wait for tomorrow,
To make up for my wrongs,
And vanquish all our sorrow.

With a longing to come to you,
Tears streak my face.
Knowing I cannot,
I keep myself in place.

Shadows shall remind me,
You are not so far away.
Maybe if I pray,
We'll meet again one day.

Maybe there's an answer,
To the dream we cannot find...
Maybe the pages will unfold to us,
Once upon a time.
