if I knew

Updated: May 24, 2023

if I knew we would never speak again

I would have thanked you


if I knew I would never look into your eyes again

I would not have looked away


if I knew I would never share a meal with you again

I would have ordered another round of coffee


if I knew I would never hug you again

I would not have let go


if I knew I could never call you on the phone again

I would not have said goodbye


if I knew I could never write you again

I would have shared more of my soul


if I knew we would not talk again

I would have asked you to share more of yours


if I knew I would never see you again

I would have told you how much I'll miss you


if I knew

if I only knew

Hi Ron; thank you for your kind words.


In answer to your question, yes, I do feel all that I write; however, I do not write all that I feel...but I am working on the courage to do so.


Thanks for reading, and for giving thought to what I write.


Pete
