It was over all too soon,
An love that made me swoon.
I thought we'd last forever,
But our folly was being together.
Remembering the raven hair in the sunlight,
Wishing I could reach out and hold you tight.
Memories fade now, apocolyptic dreams,
Defensive standings rip my mind's seams.
Crying out in my sleep for nothing,
Wishing that I still had something.
It was over all too soon, I thought,
But looking back, all I see is how we fought.
Maybe it's better the love of my life slipped away,
Left me to find something to make her want to stay.
All they are is memories, painful chapters in a book,
I tear the pages out, so I don't remember, so I can't look.

"Crying out in my sleep for nothing,

That part is my fav b/c I can relate to that part of the poem with my first relationship I had with my now ex gf, we fought almost every day.
Anyways i really loved this, Great job and good luck in the contest.
