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
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 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.

John, hindsight is a beautiful thing but life is too short for regrets, love more speak less next time.

Regret allowed us to understand. Love is rare and sweet. Best hold on tight when love is near. Thank you for reading and the comment.

Yes no pain no gain, if it didn’t hurt so bad it wouldn’t be brandished in our souls. Hopefully we won’t make the same mistake. np, you are most welcome and likewise.
