In The Blink of an Eye

In The Blink of an Eye

A Poem by Beaner166

You never know.
You only notice the dark 
When the light gets dim.
You never know.

You only know what you've had when it's gone.
Prematurely ending what could have lasted forever.
Letting go before you've had a chance.
You only know what you've got when it's gone.

Letting her go.
Sacrificing the love in your life.
Giving her better a chance.
Letting her go.

Seven years I've loved her.
Not a day goes by I don't think about you.
We could have been our greatest masterpiece.
Seven years Iv'e loved her.

Drugs don't dull the pain.
Living through a drunken stupor I still long for you.
I should have loved you.
No drug dulls the pain.

In the blink of an eye.
Mistakes pile on.
The pain becomes unbearable.
In the blink of an eye.
