I Thought You Would Come Back

in #poetry8 years ago


If you thought of me like I thought of you 

Your mind would be a map of my face

If your heart beat like mine for you

It would be an unbearable pace


If you saw me like I saw you

Your pupils would grow at my sight

If you spoke of me like I speak of you

It would truly be a delight


The pain that I feel for your ignorant heart

Is as strong as the hope I still hold

The way that I feel will soon rip me apart

Like the words of love you so told


 

If you know that I cried and I missed your sweet voice

And I thought you’d come back in a while

If you loved me like I loved you

You wouldn’t have left with a smile
