She left-
And if that wasn’t bad enough
I started felling as if
I was a bad memory that
Didn’t appear in her rear view mirror
I still see, those tail light leave
Somethings gone wrong
Time is going backwards
Even my heart questions the beats
I always thought, we had a future
She always said; now that I think of it
I was someone her mother warned of
I’m not sure how that, if at all
Has anything to do with this
She woke up like a storm
Out of the blue
On a sunny morning
and then all of a sudden
The rain starting pouring
Someday, is never going to come
Someday, was just- an illusion
No future, no past- guessing
I finally made it to some place at last
Just me locked in retreating time
She escaped everything but my mind
Never going to kiss her lips, again
Not like I did in those moments
When those moments were in the present
When I was everything, she wanted
How can I live- like this;
If living life walked away in her breath?
Somewhere between here and her
Everything that ever was
Existed in- all she is
Everything turned sour
And I still feel drenched in- everything
Her

All lost loves, are real. Yes, she was.

Well, sometimes for the sake of brevity I combine lost loves in some of my poems.
Sort of like Stevie Nicks. “One verse is about Lindsey, one is about Mick and the other one is about Don Henley.”

Much the same for me. I’ve been told by others I seem to write from the same inspiring source as Stevie Nicks. I was humbled.

Oh wait, I’m not at all creative like her! I just mean that I sometimes write about a couple of people in the same poem. 😊😊😊

I didn’t mean to imply you thought that because I made that observation about your writing being so creative. : )
