I look back now at all my past relationships either one night one hour 5 minutes lol or ten years and I made more mistakes then any of them, Love is very hard to hold on to and erase everything you had when it leaves us, I wish I could say I am sorry, but I have no regrets. You see regrets for me are for the decisions that I did not make not the ones I have. SO thank you all for being in my life...

Book of pictures

Looking back at a book of pictures

of all of my loves whom I have had

in the past my memories start to

play a movie with a cast of yesterdays

playing over and over the parts of all

the mistakes I have ever made, causing this

to run on forever for there is quite more than a

few, does it matter what I did at the time back then

I say not because I now believe after all these many long

and lonly nights that blame really matters not

for in truth when love begins to fail I always

panicked as I played a fool from never

knowing what to ever do but alas as time

moves on, and hearts are all healed

I can still fill all the pain from when my heart was

beaten and blue and while age starts to slowly

grow to the grey I have learned what

love now means for me and you, it means

never having to know if the truth was being

told, a kiss on n the check, with a homemade

bowl of chicken soup in bed when I am the ugliest

and a very bad cold in my head, Love to

me and you is when you and I are dancing

on the kitchen floor with music being played

that was left over heartbeats from making

love the night before, it means saying sorry

when we have no idea what we did, taking blame

for the burnt dinners when all our family came to town,

love is a bond between lover and friends

one that will last through the sands of time

from the begining until the very end,

and while I close the pages now of all those

who have graced my life many tears do fall but

not for sorrow no these fall because I know

that everyone is now part of me and I wish

I could thank them all individually for being in my life.
