Take me back
poem

Take me back


Take me back to the beginning

when love was fresh and fearless,

When desire burned and left trails of passion,

when forever felt certain and true,

When dreams felt possible and hope knew no bounds,

and every moment was a promise.


Now, as the years quietly pass,

The fire that burned so mighty is now a flame,

Flickering, wavering.

Now a few years feel like an eternity,

A forever I never thought I'd beg to see end.

A destiny now feels like a sting,

A blessing has become a thorn,

And what once lifted our hearts

now weighs them down,

slowly stealing the joy we used to know.


Take me back to the nights

we spoke for hours without end,

when our words carried warmth,

and silence was never empty.

Now even the shortest exchanges

feel endless, dull, and tiring.


Take me back to the days

when our love was pure,

when our smiles reached our eyes,

and laughter rose from the heart,

without effort, without doubt.


Take me back to the time

when the cuddles were warm,

When every touch felt gentle and freeing,

When kisses carried passion and hope,

When promises weighed a future.


Take me back

before the pretending,

before I feared the distance between us,

before I ever imagined

we could lose

what once felt unbreakable.
