Regrets 2009...

As you might have noticed, I am somewhat open regarding where I am at in my life, my feelings, my heart, and my soul. So…I haven’t really been sleeping lately (a little insomnia tends to spark thoughts of “why“…and where we can go). So, I will take this all with a grain of salt. I will learn from it,and I will grow. Isn't it odd that the things that are the hardest are the things that truly define your strength...and your compassion? Wouldn't it be easier to just quit...to move on...to become "one of them"? ...sometimes I wonder. So...the items below can be taken as an open letter...its written in the context of...if I died tomorrow, what would I truly regret...these are to nobody special, or maybe to the one I haven't found just yet! MY REGRETS: • I am sorry I didn’t hold you next to me more, and that I didn’t show you how I needed to be close, and that you didn’t “know” I needed and wanted you. • I wish I could have watched your chest raise and lower while you slept so that I could breathe you in and encompass your thoughts. • I want to listen to you sigh when you look into my eyes, the depths of which ache for you. • I should have taken you out in the rain, and kissed you while we fascinated each other in the night. • I should have looked you in the eyes and let you know you mean everything to me, all without saying a single word. • I should have totally dry humped you more (I am cheesy but this is supposed to be honest right)? • I wish I could watch the wind blow through your hair again, while I felt your touch against me…making my heart speed up and move with the anticipation of being close to you. • I should have been there…always. • I should have made you feel like you were the sun, and the rest of the universe danced around you. • I could have made you understand that my heart hurts and groans when you are not near, when I think of you, when I find myself yearning for a little bit of your attention…you should know this is how I feel. • I wish you could understand that your beauty is beyond measure, it staggers my thoughts, it holds me captive in my dreams, and you simply take my breath away. • I wish I could grab you by the nape of your neck, pulling your hair, and kissed your collarbone, your neck, the small of your back, your stomach and not stopped until I tasted your lips. • I should have taken you away, taken you without pretense, and made you sigh and remember a day and me forever. • I am responsible, and you should have felt like you could come to me for anything at anytime. • I should have made you smile more. • I wish I could see the sweat bead on your brow, upper lip, and your neck…your eagerness for me growing and expanding by the second so that you could be an angel in my eyes. • I should have made your heart explode, implode, and you should know that I belong to you. • I should have made you laugh more. • I wish I wouldn’t have made you cry tears of pain…I can’t tell you how this eats at my heart. • I wish you could feel my naked heart beat against mine once more so you could truly feel me. • I should have let you be the “big spoon” when we cuddled (but I was always worried that being the “little spoon” meant that I was the bitch). • I should have made you scream my name more. • I should have pissed you off more. • I should have made your stomach heave and dance with butterfly wings when you saw me, smelled me, sensed me or heard my voice. • I wish I could feel you on my shoulder, asleep while I finished watching the movie we started…all because you were tired and felt at ease with me. • I should have made you feel like you couldn’t catch your breath when I walked into the room • I could have come to you more, supported you more, and generally been with you more. • I should have kissed you in the moment, and not waited. • I should have held you in the moment, and not waited. • I should have told you I love you! • I could have surprised you more. • I should have told you I care. • I should have told you that you make me happy. • I should have told you that you make me cry (real men cry, screw the tough bastards that don’t…because they should). • I should have felt like I couldn’t breathe without you. • I wish I could have been your knight in shining armor (actually I would prefer black, it makes my ass look sexier and honestly, have you tried to get blood out of white armor…it’s totally a bitch)! • I could have made more of an effort to see you. • You should never have felt like I didn’t care. • I wish I could taste your skin once more, and take in your soul. • I wish I had spoiled you more, because you deserve to be happy. • I wish I could make you understand that I need all of the above from you, and that all you have to do is simply reach out to me in a small way and I would hand the entire world to you…just for one of your everlasting beautiful smiles. …I should have….I wish I would have….I dream that I could have…and so on…you’re my loves, my dreams, my soul, and the one(s) that I need…and you SHOULD know all the above and more (you know who you are)! I love you, I dream of you, I want you to understand…I need you… and these are my regrets! - Steve
