You forgave me

For Joey. A angel in heaven.

                           You forgave me

I remember us. We were something.

I chased you till you couldn't run no-more.

I promised you the moon, I promised you a ancient love.

Drinking aged wine and dancing till 4 am.

Now I confess to the Pacific.

I broke a angel heart in the Fall and now I feel the regret.

The California Winter storms became my only friend and

I told the sea.

Pretty lady told me yesterday, she whispered to me on a pay phone.

I forgave you Johnnie. Please enjoy California and please be careful.

You can't escape from everything. Have great fun and find a reason to be alive.

Her last words, kind and sweet.

Once we had a torrid love and we swam in kisses and sweet wine.

I remember a blushing beauty, who gave everything to me and I did not know.

Love sweet, love nourished can be utopia and perfect.

Foolish man sat alone. Drinking vodka and juice and singing songs to the Pacific ocean.

My pretty, my dearest love.

Kind lady, my faire beauty.

I remember you. I remember us.

You forgave me and I can't forgive myself.

Some men think "there will always be another" till there isnt and they get to an age that they start coming few and far between, till there is only vodka, and oceans of regret. I love your poems even if they are only words because they try to relay a message of love and appreciation of the woman in general.

Once, this was me. I learn love come rarely and when a person offered love. Be honest. Thank you Corset for reading and the comment.

Sad words. We all do foolish things every now and then. Forgive yourself. You have learned the lesson, it has caused you grief.

More than "Just Words"... the feelings invoked, regret? I sense a longing after the party ended. Excellent.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you dear friend for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

[Gee]

You paint a picture of a man that has broken many a heart, squandered love to live alone only with memories.
Another very enjoyable read.
Hope you are well Coyote.

Coyote,
More than just words, your writing opens the heart and allows us to feel again. I wanted to write a "Happily ever after" ending to alleviate the pain. All of us who have been in this situation still hurt, no matter how much time has elapsed. It brings back painful memories but your writing is superb.
Peace,
Richie b.

This certainly relates to the frailty of human emotion
Too little, too late with many regrets
Well expressed

Losing a love that means so much and realizing the value of what you have lost forever is devastating. "You forgave me and I can't forgive myself " most heart wrenching confession. An emotional and elegant writing, Dancing coyote.
