I keep having flashes of what we used to have...
I was never quite sure what it was.
I miss spending my days with you...
I'm sorry I rejected you.

I thought I didn't need you,
I knew you'd never really leave me.
But, now you're far away and I miss you.
Damn, I wish you'd stayed.

You were never quite upfront with me,
You'd never ask me in a million years;
Just to figure out if I felt it for you.
I thought I knew you needed me, you'd be here always.

You're "always" faded rather fast,
Where'd you go off to?
Here I sit, all alone; wondering who to blame more.
Myself and my rotten feelings? Or you and your stubborn nature....

have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of the shadow of death
a light has dawned.

Thanks for the reply! Yea, "always" is never what it appears.   Sadly....

I also like that line about "always" fading fast, it's really good.  The whole poem tells how you feel very well, great writing!
