The Boy I Left Behind

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

We met on a warm, sunny day

Trouble seemed far away

Yet, we took  a chance

As we did a lover’s dance

Love was what we thought we knew

It wasn’t enough to carry us through

I wonder what would have been

And I wonder what I’ll find

If I go back to the boy I left behind

He was gracious and loved me to the letter

There’s truly no one better

My views were slanted

I took him for granted

Now all I have are memories

Of what used to be

I wonder what would have been

And I wonder what I’ll find

If I go back to the boy I left behind

He stays in my thoughts and dreams

Until I fall apart at the seams

I miss his touch

Because it means so much

I may never get him back again

Yet, I’ll say

As I continue on my way

I wonder what would have been

And I wonder what I’ll find

If I go back to the boy I left behind
