If I knew.
If I knew.
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
We learn too late to be quiet. Anger and violence leads only to more pain and sadness.
If I knew.
I would of loved more and said less.Sweet memories slip into my mind of us.
Two people loving and holding tight like it was our last moment.
I would of loved more and said less.Sweet memories slip into my mind of us.
Two people loving and holding tight like it was our last moment.
I remember walking hand in hand with you.
On lonely beaches.
Never more happy.
The sweet times are rare now.
Eyes of youth had faded away with life burdens and losses.
I look into the mirror and see a tire man.
I wish to go back and feel again.
To hunger for sweet kisses and love til the morning light.
Walk down the naked beaches of Monterey coast.
In a mist of silence with a gentle hand in mine.
I didn’t know laughter and dreams would fade away.
If I knew I would of try to stop time.
Hold you like you were my last breath.

Oh John, you speak for all of us I think. Lovely
Thank you Valentine for your kind words. Good to go back in time when love was sweet and kind.
So sad….yet so beautiful in words. I think living in today’s world tends to age us very fast because there is so much tragedy around us. I wish I could go back in time, but I’d like to go even further, perhaps all the way back to the 1800s. Life back then was much simpler.
I don’t know. Read history. Hadn’t been real peace in our world in a long time. I believe good people will overcome. We must hold on to hope. Thank you for the comment.
so true JOhn! the moment we have now is usually lost in other things and our smile just fades away. to live in those moments with smile and joy would be true living
I learn you can’t go back in time. I’m wiser. I enjoy the good days now and don’t rush. Thank you for the comment.
If we knew our own destiny we might choose to run away or fall asleep alone and afraid.
Memories are all we have left when everything else fades away. Good lessons to be learned from reading this, thank you.
Truly truly beautiful, a great reminder to embrace our every now. Thank you John.
You are correct. Thank you for reading.
Beautiful John, just simply beautiful. Thank you. Clarabelle
Thank you Clarabelle for the comment. Regret is a two-sided blade. Good to have love someone and hold good memories..
Yes, John, so true.
Oh!Poet! Don’t regret because you did the best for you and her at this exactly moment. But no one and nothing prevents you from trying again ! So, trying again!
This poem is for many good people. What I would do to spend a evening with my dear Grandparent. I was always in a rush when they were alive. Today I wouldn’t leave their house to be able to heard their laughter and voices. Thank you for the comment.
memories haunt the heart as well as the mind…
I agree with Red hauntingly beautiful…
