IF WE HAD ANOTHER DAY.

i sit here
recalling
all the moments we wasted
fighting
when we could have come closer instead
i find an ocean of regret in my
for the moments have passed now
time and tide waits for no one, they say
and what they say is true.
now all my love and
all your care
is wasted
for we are restrained

we do not have
the freedom of loving
and being in love anymore
all we have are tears

tears so many
that the fire within us
has been extinguished
if we had another day

i would forget about the caging
that i knew was i ahead
and fall into your arms
one last time

i would tell you of my love for you
so many times
that it would be enough
for the expanse of a lifetime
and most importantly,
i would remind you
that no matter what happens
you will always hold
everything that lies in my heart.
