Still Today You’ll See

Accidental Poet



 

Back in the day

You owned my thoughts

My attention more on you

Much less my schoolwork got

 

Even though

It was many years ago

Still, you rule my heart

Still, for you it glows

 

In my mind

It makes perfect sense

But most can’t understand it

Can’t ascend that fence

 

That I could pass on other loves

Why would I live that way?

To go through life alone

“So sad”, they would say

 

But they don’t know you

The same as I

They didn’t fall in love

With your smile and eyes

 

They didn’t know

The Sharon that I knew

The sound of your voice

All the memories too

 

You went away a long time ago

And still, you’re with me today

Making me smile like this

Every night and day

 

That’s the impact

You had on me

The reason for my smile

Still today you’ll see

    You didn't waste any time on this one Teddy. As if you were there waiting to pounce on it with your words of positivity and encouragement. I thank you dear poetess for always supporting my poetry, especially my poetry for Sharon. 😍

    Will I see tomorrow too?!
    Note to self: Do shut up Orchi. lol.

    • Accidental Poet

      What you see tomorrow, you will have foreseen today, Orchi. Don't scare yourself. 😄

        Sounds bit like: 'You're a fortune teller, so you say. What about the bus that knocked you over?' The person replies 'Erm, well I didn't foresee that!' lol.

        Another beautiful poem AP. She is clearly some lady!

        • Accidental Poet

          If I have given even a glimpse of the wonder that Sharon is, I've done what I set out to do. But I will always strive to show what she has meant to me. For if she were ever to come here and read these words, she'll know she has made at least one man's heart live with a light of forever love.
          Thanks for reading and your compliment Sax. 😊
