A Poem by Haley Lynn Thomas
"

Dedicated to the first boy who ever made me feel special.

"

I wish I could go back in time

To the afternoon I met you

There's so much that I would change

I regret everything I didn't do


You held the door open for me

Just like a true gentleman

You tried to start up a conversation

I just ducked my head


There were other girls in the room

But you turned to me

You tried to make me laugh

I just turned away


Years of insecurities weighed down on me

I've built up walls to protect me

Not realizing they are holding me back

From what it is I really want


I may never see you again

I didn't even ask you your name

Maybe it never would have been anything

But now I will never know for sure


I wish I'd said something

Anything

Instead I ducked my head

Instead I turned away

 

I'm sorry
