Contrite love poem

I’ve tried to quantify
or written why


The way I feel is
different and the same


Cheesy romcoms,
heartbreaking tragedies


Romeo and Juliet
Jim and Pam


Fate brought them together
Silence keeps us apart


I wonder how you don’t see
what I see so clear


Do you ever have the thought
but then stop yourself?


Mustn’t wander down the path,
I imagine you might think.


You may turn around
Before even that thought.


Maybe you’d be happy, forever
With the one who holds you now


I’d hold you more tightly,
and you’d know more than happy


It might seem to you a chance

I know our future is anything but
