Summer that never came

Time ticks on ,the years go by

The heart remains strong, feelings that wont die

They remain Dormant, and I have to dismiss it 

I want to erupt because of the part of me that misses it

Your attitude I was expecting

My early advances were rejected

And to be honest I wish I was patient

But i'm happy you kept yourself protected

Feelings were beginning to stick

When our personalities started to click

On those Saturday's we spent together I could see you had the X-Factor

I went home, we spoke endlessly on the phone

The love had grown

I was in a zone

I  thought about you all the time not just when I was alone

It was the beautiful calm, before the storm

and to my despair it didn't feel fair

the rain was destructive, I wasn't prepared 

the love i was pursuing  

The pain flooded in and the foundations were ruined

I thought it would last forever

I wasn't expecting the stormy weather

From a hundred to zero

Everything came to a standstill

I stood still, I felt empty 

From there it was all up hill

Deep down I was in a uncertain place

Shrouded in mist

There was no path back

I would text, but you wouldn't text back 

I checked to see if the texts were sent

I said sorry so many times i forgot what it meant

Day by day

I missed you in every way

Together i really thought we would fly 

But we migrated our separate ways

Every time I saw you

The feelings came

But for you it was never the same

Nobody told me love was this strong

That it could last this long

Or that it could make feelings with other people feel so wrong

Time ticks on,the years go by

The heart remains strong, feelings that wont die

They remain Dormant, and I have to dismiss it 

I want to erupt because of the part of me that misses it

Not bad! It kept my attention the whole thing through! Like as in I just wanted to keep knowing what happens next. I don't know if this is a personal experience, but you know what? You and I can be friends. My name is Bryan, obviously. :) Don't worry, I don't bite.

Anyways check this out. This poem is something that could of taken a lot of time and planning. It's incredible! Great work :)

I liked this...was a different sort of lost love poem. You had your own stamp on it. Really good.
