I'll Get There...

I miss the past,
The good times pass by so fast.
One minute I'm just a teen,
First kisses, first everythings,
Now I'm 'grown up', have to find my own way in life.
Have to make decisions,
Get on with things.
I look back now and it's all just a blur,
It's all gone so quickly,
I've been in love a few times,
I've had my heart broken,
And I've done some heart breaking.
Love doesn't get any easier,
No matter how old you are.
It's the same confusing battle between heart and brain.
School days pass by so quickly,
And you never believed them,
When they said they're the best years of your life,
You just wish them away,
And now - today,
I wish I could have them back again.
And I've made a few mistakes over the last few years or so,
Made plans, changed plans,
Failed myself.
But I got back up.
I'll make more plans,
Probably change more plans and fail myself again and again.
But I'll get there,
Wherever I'm meant to be,
I'll end up there eventually.

(2 poems in 1 day?! Whaaat? I don't know what's happened to me!!)

Miss You

I haven't been writing much this year, just haven't had the inspiration. So this is the first poem i've written in months and months, i'm not too sure about it, the rhyming is a little forced in places. But at least i've finally written something!


If only I'd not been a fool,
We could've been a team,
You haunt me like a ghoul,
In all of my deepest dreams.

Looking back is bittersweet,
Memories of some of the best ever nights,
The amazing people I got to meet,
I love that city with it's bright lights.

You taught me so many things,
I handed myself over to you completely,
I was never asking for a ring,
Just a chance to prove how good we could be.

Now it's been a while since I saw your face,
And everything has changed since then,
I'm in an entirely different place,
And matching up to you is too much to ask of men.

Honestly, I am getting by fine,
I only wish love was as simple as Cinderella and her shoe,
And that you could be mine,
Because, after all I've been through, I still really miss you.
