I wouldn't edit the poem by the way. I like it way it is with all the lack of coherence and the abundance of grammatical errors. It's like preserving a fossil with all its integrity,
THE WORDS I WOULD HAVE SAID
It was a dark stormy night we were seated in my room
We were having a nasty fight all things were in gloom.
You said I had no time for you and I was always busy
You said I was never there, that it’s driving you crazy….
You said I’d miss a dinner, you said I forgot your birthday,
You said I’d never call, that I was having my own way
You said I never really cared when in fact I always do
You said I was insensitive and my feelings were never true.
You said you’re just a girl in my life and not a part of me,
You said my heart was numb; you’re love I couldn’t see
You said that life would be easier if you never knew me at all
And said I was better off without you when tears began to fall…
I tried to brush them off your eyes yet you turned away from me
I tried to say that I was sorry but silence ran so deep
I tried to hold your hand as I struggled to hold you near…
But all I got was a cold embrace saying “it’s over now my dear…”
With those last words you said our love was at last over
Go our separate ways, true love we might even discover
You left in my room the hundred tears you’ve shed
But you never really heard those words I would have said…
With tears rolling down my eyes I said these words all alone…
“You bring out my best with all the good you have shown
From the moment I saw you I knew you were the one
And I don’t know what I will do now that you’re gone
Your kisses gave me warmth, your hand made me feel at ease
Your sweet voice gave me rest, your eyes they gave me peace.
You never left my side with that smile you always share
You stepped into my life when no one seemed to care…
You were my light, you completed me in every way
You were my very all, you made life better each day
You were my everything, my angel, my friend
You are the only love I’ll ever have till the very end…”
As much I regret that I didn’t see it before
Part of me died when you walked out that door
As I lay down with a shattered heart crying on my bed
I wonder what if you heard all those words I would have said……
i think i wrote it while i was in high school. i actually exerted an effort to try and find rhymes for the verses (pathetic me) and i got this from voices.net. i don't know why i wrote this. i think it was after seeing a movie that reminded me of my lacking in KR* and "inspired me" to write about unrequited love (again). please feel free to laugh your heart out about this pathetic teen who think he wrote something meaningful....you have my permission.
*KR = karelasyon
*KR = karelasyon
