I WONDER

Here’s a poem I wrote a long time ago, which I don’t think I’ve posted on this new site yet.

I WONDER
C 2010 JoJo

I wonder if you ever think of me,
When night is drawing nigh and you are free
To cast your mind back to times long past,
When I alone, loved you with all my heart,
While you held back, and we ended it at last?

Do you recall the sweetness of our passion?
The tenderness, the love so freely given?
Do you remember reaching out to me,
And I, so eagerly drawing you near?
Forever close, forever dear?

No, I doubt that I am ever in your thoughts,
I think I am but a dim and distant memory,
An unimportant woman who crossed your path
Briefly, and not worth remembering,
Not worth a thought, not even fleetingly.

    1. Hi Marje,

      Thanks so much for our comment. I’ve always found a release for inner pain by writing a poem about it. It’s cathartic for me and beats not going out on a bender – no hangover after! lol

      I really appreciate your poem.
