Like BeforeA Poem by GamingGalSometimes the past has to be embraced to move on.I was dozing When you called Dreams fluttering here and there So I thought it untrue Thought I was dreaming When I heard your voice On the other line Like before
You called me Not the other way around Calling just to talk Away the night Laugh away our fears And wipe away our tears Like before
Though I don’t say it I smile the entire time My heart racing My hands shaking As I listen to That voice I love Tell me of everything I have missed Like before
You laugh I laugh No tension in our voices As we both cherish These few minutes And I pretend Things are perfect Like before
Forty minutes of happiness Before you begin to doze And I let you go To slip into the land of dreams Hopefully having just one Dream of me Like before
I wish you goodnight Then end the call Laying down With a smile on my face My mind at ease With thoughts of you Like before
A flash of light Brings me awake To one last message from you And before I read it I wish on the stars Please let this be Like before
My wish comes true As I read your words Hushed confessions Of hidden, continual love Of missing me That I mean something to you Like before
I fight back tears Happiness flooding me Elated to know That I’m not the only one Who still remembers And misses What things were Like before
I reply with simple words You’ve heard so many times “I miss you.” “I miss your voice.” Asking you to call again But only if you want So we can smile and laugh Like before
That one call Made all the difference Took away the pain And bitterness Left me smiling Happy for you and her Glad to know you have someone Who makes you happy
So, this is me Fully accepting the fact That you’re happy Because so am I After all I only want the best for you Just like before
But no matter what I will always care I will always be here I will always miss you I will always love you Just like before © 2011 GamingGalFeatured Review
