How Much?

I often wonder, what could have been.
Had I poured out my heart,
Like the ink in this pen.
Had I told you what you did
That made me question
How much I cared for you.

I only wish there’d be another chance,
To be with you longer,
That night of the dance.
I would have kissed you so tenderly,
And held you so gently to show you,
How much I cared.

I know it’s in past tense,
But the fire still shines…
How could I have been so dense?
I should’ve opened my eyes
And looked deeper.  To prove to myself,
How much I cared for you.

I should’ve let go,
Move forward, forget, but
I have to let you know.
When I see you my heart tears.
She’s standing there, but inside I know,
How much I care.

I’ve told you before how much I need you,
What you mean to me,
How much I love you.
No matter what happens, I’ll always know,
How much I /still/ care.

    Very romantic, and to love someone so much, you are also very lucky. I hope she appreciates both your care of her as well as your words. Cheers and well done -Karyn

    This is the first poem I have read on this site and the first comment I have posted. I picked you at random. I enjoyed readring the poem because I am a love poet myself. It spoke of your yet fresh love for someone you had to love from a distance. I have been there and i understand where you are coming from, if indeed this is a atrue story. Sometimes I write from imagination or other peoples experience. Keep up the good work.
