Although We're No Longer Together, I Still Love You

April 5, 2021

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is troubled loves.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

A love poem to a former lover about the difficulty of letting go:

Although we're no longer together, I still love you.
Each moment of each day, I'm thinking of you.
Everywhere we once were, I still miss you.
Every place that's new, I want to show you.

I know I have my flaws and didn't do
Many of the things I should have done.
I live in self-served pain with my regret,
Salvaging my pleasure with my sorrow.

I do not ask you to come back to me.
The past is past and needs now to be buried.
I tell you this because I cannot bear
That you not hear the beating of my heart.
