Patience
To tell you how much I love you
is to say what you already know
but to kiss your lips
is what my heart does miss.
Honey, why did you have to go?
We said that our love was forever.
We said that our love was true.
Now you have gone away
and throughout each day
my broken heart cries out for you.
I always thought we could work things out.
Isn't that what love is about?
Patience.
We hardly tried to reconcile
a love that could have been worthwhile.
Patience.
Now I see you have found another.
I cannot believe you have replaced me so soon.
What did I do wrong?
Or has it been all along
that your feelings for me were untrue?
What does he have I am missing?
Are you sure that he loves you for real?
Are you first in his life?
Does he want you for his wife?
Does he honestly care how you feel?
I always thought we could work things out.
Isn't that what love is about?
Patience.
We hardly tried to reconcile
a love that could have been worthwhile.
Patience.
To tell you how much I love you
is to say what you already know
but to kiss your lips
is what my heart does miss.
Honey, why did you have to go?

I like the melody this has, it easily becomes a song. Sometimes these kinds of answers are not easy to define. I think there are many who share your questioning and get no answers. Nice flow and honest write

A very emotional poem full of yearning. If this really happened to you, I am so sorry. But one question - is she worthy of your love?

Michael, you speak the most deeply felt thoughts of those who need the patience to let go while grieving for as long as it takes to get through such a loss. I feel for you my friend. I have walked this path and know the truth you speak. A very well-done poem whose melody sings to the lonely spirit when we mourn lost love.
John

Ty all This is about my ex-wife and no, I would never go back to her Cat but I still carry a lot as I have never been able to find a woman who would give me a chance so as I could move on more in a healthy way. I've let go but have never been able to completely let go. My ocd/bipolar is always an issue with women. Even women who have ocd issues themselves Why I don't even bother with ocd dating sites anymore. Awesome you all picked up on the melody with it Glad you enjoyed.
