Thoughts Of Yesterday Poem by Jim Blackman

Another night I find myself alone
Thoughts of yesterday of what use to be
A time with you of the life we shared
When we were a family back when you cared
Before the day I threw it all away
With the words I wrote and the lie I spoke
The pain I caused you the hurting inside
Tearing you down ripping your world apart
So carelessly lossing myself and letting you go
All of these tears can not wash away
What I have done and who I have hurt
The life I have lost the ones that I loved
The promises I broke the trust you placed in me
What I feel inside this heartache and pain
Are not just for me but for those I have touched
The ones that loved and had faith in me
Something so special so few will ever know
The precious gift that was given to me
To be part of your life your world your love
All this I have ruined all this I let go
Its another night and I find myself alone
With thoughts of yesterday and what use to be
