The Kiss I Miss
~~~
I could not be the person you wanted
And with every tear you cried
I saw another failure haunted
I lost a little of me inside
~~~
I never meant to cause such pain
Had I known this from the start
I would not have been so vain
To think I could mend your heart
~~~
Like the tragedies of mythology
Our world’s balance in every turn
All I have to offer now is apology
For the hell you did not earn
~~~
If I could go back, a different way
Spare you the weight of all of this
Regret would still haunt me today
In your unremembered kiss
~~~
So, forgive the trials I put you through
Nothing ever done an evil wish
That I may forever hold onto you
In the bliss of the kiss I miss
~~~

A beautifully versed story. Epic poetry.
Thanks Yassy! I appreciate all your support, always!
My pleasure, Brad.
A story told so poignantly.
Thanks sis!
Beautifully written words of loss and understanding coming too late
Thank you, Beth!
A beautiful story that tugs at the heart strings, but then again, you have been tugging at my heart strings for over a year now. ❤🥰
Awww, thanks Kristian! You are too sweet! 💖😘💕🌹
is it better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all?
Sometimes we don’t see the impact of our actions until it’s too late.
Oh, so true! Thanks Jim!
So incredibly powerful! Wow
Thank you so much for your kind words and welcome!
Beautiful! Absolutely lovely, feels like a song, great image you have painted and wrapped up perfectly with the kiss that was missed…Great work my friend!
Thank you, my brother! I know there are more than a few kisses you remember fondly from your past!
Oh yeah! My pleasure my brother!
My dearest Brad, what an incredible poem.
“Regret would still haunt me today
In your unremembered kiss”

Thanks G! Sending you tons of love in return! 💖💖💖
Thank you. I got them. Sending flowers.

Very touching 😥
Do you mean emotionally moving or my hand on your arse while you kiss me? Because either one is good for me! 😘
Hmmm, can’t it be both? 😉
