Reflection of The Heiress

Willy Beeman

I wish that I could run that back, but in life you can't press rewind.
Because the only way to fix this thing is to go back in time.

When you told me you wanted to leave, I pretended it didn't hurt me.
Now I can barely breathe.

I remember when you took my ring off, told me it's over cuz you didn't feel safe.
The one and only woman to have put me in my place.

The Blonde was a pacifier and The Doctor came with borrowed time.
You wanted to see me do life, one last chance to call you mine.

As I did in the start again I cut off my collection.
I had it all figured I knew what I was doing but there was one more lesson.

I wish it was "her" I learned with because she is still here.
You are gone, we can't even speak the sum of all my fears.

Never had I known a love like yours, never have I found real peace.
Holding you tight in a hot bath, all I needed was you and me.

One in a million the last of a dying breed.
All I really had to do was listen while meeting all your needs.

No more candy coated rainbows and I can't stand the rain.
I'm drowning, losing hope trying to survive by faith.

Now, as the thunderous silence surrounds I'm drowning in a pool of regret.
You loved me at my worst, I wish you loved me at my best.

    Very good poem of remorse and regret Willy. I see a person with tears in his eyes as they reflect on having lost probably the best person they would ever have known. And, learning that they screwed it up, royally! Very good job. Hope you are in for great days ahead this Holiday Season!
