One and Only

One and Only

A Poem by James Probert
"

The one that got away

"
We went our separate ways
But I still see you every day
I still think of all the things that I
Never got to say
I needed you so bad
But I was not your man
You left me here to rot and die
And it still makes me sad
I can't get over you
No matter what I do
I'd give anything to turn back time
When you and I made two

They said it was a schoolboy crush
But for me that's never what it was
And just because we were so young
That doesn't mean it wasn't love
I saw you standing over there
And my lungs couldn't catch the air
I couldn't help but stop and stare
As my heart fell in to disrepair
I didn't want to leave that spot
Just stand there 'til myself heartbeat stops
'Cause you are what I really want
And no force can make me move on
That day lives on in memory
Love at first sight took hold of me
No other girl can set me free
And that's how it will always be

I miss your random kisses
And the holding of your hand
Staring at those deep brown eyes
And playing games of tag
I miss all the good times
At home and at the school
I don't miss the sad times
When you and I weren't cool
I hoped for forever
But It wasn't meant to last
We are in the future now
The past went by so fast
I always think of you
When I need happy thoughts
You're my one and only
And I'll love you 'til I'm gone
