Differently....

Did fate bring me in?

Couldn't be another beginning

I still remember the last time

I thought your love was mine

But it's more than a dream

A nightmare it seems

For when I woke up it was gone

A memory left undone.

 

Now here you are again

Is it to make amends?

I don't want to gamble over

I cannot dare to suffer

The feelings still remain

Both the anger and shame

How can I start?

My world's still falling apart

There's no reason to pretend

The pain won't either end

 

Life has never been the same

Yet I kept myself tamed.

Years of pondering through

With ceaseless tears I spent with you.

 

Fate must have brought you back in

God made it happen by all means

Not for love to have a second chance

But for me to have my last glance.

 

When I look at you reluctantly

I sense something differently

Not love, not hope, not lust

Just a man from my past.

    Nice job. There was something wrong and it blocked my view of the last 3 lines. I thought it amazing to end that way ... the last line being just, "When I look at you reluctantly" ... then I saw the last lines and said ... oh well. It's good but I still like that as the last line "When I look at you reluctantly" thank you for entering.
