IF I HAD KNOWN: LOVE'S MEMORIES
(Short Sad Love Poems by Injete Chesoni)
If I had known that one day you would be gone,
I would have savored every moment spent in your arms.
I would have treasured every second of time spent with you,
To remind me that once upon a time our love was true.
I would have frozen every moment when your eyes met mine,
I would have captured every caress, in the hourglass of time.
I would have stocked up on memories for that future day,
When you would be gone to shores far away.
But while we were together I was deceived,
That love was forever and not a passing breeze.
I would have savored every moment spent in your arms.
I would have treasured every second of time spent with you,
To remind me that once upon a time our love was true.
I would have frozen every moment when your eyes met mine,
I would have captured every caress, in the hourglass of time.
I would have stocked up on memories for that future day,
When you would be gone to shores far away.
But while we were together I was deceived,
That love was forever and not a passing breeze.
