Baby
I’m so sorry
for how much more
I could have loved
your sparkling eyes
when they met mine
your hands that touched
a whole universe
inside
my chest
your arms that searched
for a warm embrace
I could have given
your hair that brushed
my cheeks that blushed
your breaths that rushed
to my shoulders
my neck
and lungs
But I’m so sorry
for how much that lied
outside
our reach
Baby
how I’m so sorry
for how much more
I asked for
that I didn’t need
how much more
I could have done
without leaving again
to breath
to live
but to die again
to see you moving on
from what I could not
Baby
how I’m so sorry
for how much more
I could have fought for
how many more times
I could have kissed
and how much less
I could have missed
because however much I miss you
I’m so sorry
for how much
I could have missed you
more
And how much more
I could have loved
my sparkling eyes
when they met
yours.
